Good morning! Here's the tech news you need to know today.

1. Reviews for the new Apple TV are out. Reviews are generally positive and make it sound like a good all-round streaming device.

2. Lab-testing startup Theranos is reportedly preparing to shuffle its board of directors. That news comes as the startup is under fire over how much of its own technology it uses on blood tests.

3. Samsung reported its Q3 earnings last night. It posted an operating profit, but warned that next year is going to be tough for its smartphone division.

4. Over 200 of the UK's most high-profile technology entrepreneurs have signed an open letter to David Cameron asking him not to reduce the level of skilled migration. People behind the letter include the founders of Google DeepMind, Citymapper, Shazam, and SwiftKey.

5. Sony released its earnings yesterday, and it made a healthy profit. The company's smartphone division, however, was the only part of the business to make a loss.

6. Amazon is reportedly planning to launch its own shopping channel which would let customers buy items right off the screen. It's expected to launch next year.

7. GoPro shares fell 17% following its latest earnings report. The company missed analysts' earning expectations and offered weak guidance.

8. One of the former cofounders of shuttered cleaning startup Homejoy is launching a new cleaning startup. One former Homejoy customer claims that the new company already had his information.

9. YouTube has officially launched its ad-free subscription service. YouTube Red costs $9.99 per month and removes ads on YouTube.

10. Yelp reported its Q3 earnings and shares initially jumped as much as 12%. Net revenue was $143.6 million (40% year-over-year growth) vs expectations of $141.42 million.
