      That sounds significantly more expensive and difficult to set up, for an inferior experience.

      His machine allows him to virtually run through these places or be streamed a live trainer, neither of which the tablet allows.

        Yes, I’m sure it’s a great feature for some people, but that doesn’t excuse a device being non-functional without that account. Hopefully there is a big warning somewhere but I doubt it

      In addition to what SCB said, it also changes elevation and speed along with the trainer. It’s pretty impossible to replace this experience with YouTube.

      I don’t really get into YouTube while running because I don’t want to be messing with the iPad once I start running. Perhaps a one hour video?
