So the best they could do is release it for free on the internet.
They won't make any money anyway, so give it away and more people see it than if the hackers had STFU in the first place - so Sony don't win, but neither do the hackers.

They probably received an anonymous email warning of a potential "glorious thermonuclear annihilation of the American infidel and his brothers who will be crying in their own blood and weeping at their petty insults of the great and glorious leader".

As you know/experience it, is Christmas as religious holiday or a good old tradition that you happy be part of?

Christmas is a just good excuse to get together with the family or throw a party, because everyone gets the day off.

Christmas is actually a pagan holiday - a holdover from sun (not Son) worship.
BTW, wasn't "whole lotta duct tape" a song by Led Zeppelin?

Sun worship? Ever since people learned to predict the future ( = make a calendar) by astronomy, the two equinoxes and the longest and shortest days of the year have been holidays in most cultures.
Christmas at least used to be at the shortest day of the year. Not the perfect day for sun worship

Maybe it was meant as a celebration to the fact, that the shortest day is through and the sun would appear more every day.

"Not the perfect day for sun worship"?
They considered it a rebirth of the sun - it was getting stronger every day from that points (okay, they were off by a few days). If you don't believe it, though, you can look it up. It's not just a theory. A Roman leader wanted to unite his citizens, pagans and Christians, and figured this was a way to do it.

It used to be a religious holiday but in recent times it has become a shopping/consumer event.

I'm 40 years old, I don't remember a single Christmas that was in any way religious.
We did try to go to midnight mass at Lichfield cathedral about 20 years ago after the pubs had closed but the queen was there and we weren't allowed anywhere near the place.

The Queen was in a pub? In Lichfield? She must have been shopping for the Queen Mum's Mackesons!

Yes, to the Gods of consumerism. 
Seriously ... If you believe in such things good for you.
We, my parents, sister and I (and bf/gf if applicable) , usually do a posh (food, wine, ...) christmas eve dinner, and on Christmas day, we (at least used to ) have an extended family party, of my father's side of the family ) and we celebrate new year day with my mother's side of the family.
I'd rather be phishing!

It's not "Religion" for us.
For me and my house it is about a person, The birth of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
Merry Christmas CP.

Yes.
One need only look at the name to see that Christmas has a significant Christian history - hence why songs such as "Silent Night", "Hark the Herald Angels Sing", "We Three Kings of Orient Are", "Joy to the World", etc, have been Christmas staples for over a century.
And although there used to be pagan celebrations around the same time each year, they haven't been the mainstream reason for December celebration since the Middle Ages, when Christianity swept over Europe.
Mind you, nobody can force you to have a Christian Christmas - hence why the old pagan ceremonies are surging in popularity again

Yes, but Christians hijacked the Pagan festival Yule (Jul) for the date as they did Easter (Eostre) for the crucifixion. Early Christians were a canny bunch and inserting Christianity into and existing festival was much like early Microsoft making it easy to open WordPerfect files in Word. It's sort of insidious - and works! The first mention of December as being Christ's birthday wasn't recorded until about the 3rd century AD. Even the year is open to debate but it was most likely 2 -4 BC.
I get the comments about it being over commercialised, but I think there's also a magical/spiritual element too, although these feelings are probably cultural in origin too. We got time off, presents and feasted, how can that not imprint a bias?
Clearly it has significance for Christians, but this time of year is special to many cultures too as you stated. I'm not a Christian myself (I was raised one), but I LOVE Christmas and play carols on my guitar. (dem Christians have some nice toons!)

I'm not religious, but my whole family are so at Christmas I go hang out with them, go to church with them, enjoy their company etc
Then I go back to my life of hedonism
