Cook was also at pains to say that this growth is global.
"This is not a local phenomenon," he added, "and it was not a narrow success. We achieved multiple all-time highs. We are on the way to our goal of doubling our financial year 2016 Services revenue by 2020."
The figures for Apple Services in this fourth fiscal quarter include revenue from the likes of Apple Music, and Apple News+, but earnings from Apple TV+ will not be seen until the next quarter.
