 Good morning! It's Christmas Eve - way too late to get off Santa's naughty list. You've probably got the day off but tech news never sleeps! Here's what you need to know right now: 1. Apple declined to stream "The Interview" on iTunes. The company did not comment to the New York Times on why it didn't want to touch the movie at the heart of the Sony hack. 2. Yes, Sony will release "The Interview," despite the hack: "We have never given up on releasing The Interview and we're excited our movie will be in a number of theatres on Christmas Day," said Michael Lynton, chairman and CEO of Sony Entertainment, in a statement. 3. Songwriter revenues on Pandora are pitiful. Pharrell made less than $3,000 in writer royalties for 43 million streams of "Happy." 4. There's a big 'Android IPO' coming in 2015.
