Apple announced that it now has 1 billion paying subscribers to its services and that revenue from these sales has reached an all-time high.
In its third-quarter financial results, reported after the stock market closed on Aug. 3, Apple reported $21 billion in net sales for its services category out of $81 billion in total net sales, meaning that these subscriptions now account for a quarter of the Cupertino, California-based technology company’s total sales.
