Apple’s SVP of services Eddy Cue has revealed that Brazil is Apple TV’s second-largest market by subscriber count and its fastest-growing, in an interview with Brazilian newspaper Folha de S.

There was a lot to discuss, and it was also not a shock that one of the questions that popped up during the Q&A was one that’s been hovering over the film since it became a global sensation. (F1: The Movie is the highest-grossing sports movie of all time, star Brad Pitt’s highest-grossing movie of all time and Apple’s biggest earner, too, with north of $600 million.) “I got one last question that they asked,” Cue said, holding an …
