'The Interview' Now Avaiable on iTunes
Apple has started offering the Sony's "The Interview" film that angered North Korea and triggered a cyberattack against the studio, through iTunes.
The movie costs $14.99 to buy and $5.99 to rent on iTunes, according to the website.
Apple was one of the later tech companies to sign on to carrying the film via video-on-demand, and waited four days after competitors first released it on their digital video platforms on Dec 24.
Sony Pictures has already released the movie online via Google's YouTube and Google Play, Microsoft's Xbox gaming console and a Sony dedicated website. Earlier, the movie was first made available after large movie theater chains refused to screen the comedy following threats of violence from hackers who opposed the film.
The movie was also shown in 331 mostly independent theaters, which helped generate more than $1 million in sales on Christmas day.
