Also the watch doesn't track weight lifting worth a poo poo.

Mine doesn’t track running worth poo poo. 45 minute run, running the whole time with the workout app going. At the end the green fitness ring will only be partially filled and will show 25 minutes of exercise.

The subscription part is the valuable part of Peleton's company. Anyone can buy a nice $1k bike and pair it with apple fitness

It'll be interesting to see if the watch thing can completely replace all the extra junk you usually have to add to a spinbike (not always succesfully) that the peloton and similar ones already have built in. Probably not, but might be enough for someone who doesn't care that much.

I am so not competitive. In fact, I am the least non-competitive. So I win.
At $9.99/month or less on the annual plan, yeah, Apple’s going straight for the jugular with Peloton.

It is. Peleton charges 12.99/mo for the cheapest tier and 39.99/mo if you want access to archived workouts.

I was assuming apple was going to create some kind of bundle. $30 a month for the all inclusive is already pretty good deal, but $15 a month for the core package is less than I expected.

I guess it depends on if that 200gigs is shared or each.

Shame the iCloud element is only 50gb on that tier. I pay what, 99c a month for that? Just do the 200gb and presume most people won't scrape that.

What confuses me is, who even identifies with this poo poo anymore?

They are literally taking the annoying techbro douche who posts their tri-weekly Orange Theory workouts on social with wack inspirational hashtags and making EVERYONE that person.

I'm sure it's some Dell POS with a 1024x768 screen with some Intel CPU using a legacy name like Celeron or Pentium.
