Peloton could be bought by Apple to boost healthcare initiatives
snookie said:GeorgeBMac said:No...Yeh, Peloton has a subscriber base of primarily serious exercise enthusiasts (many of which likely wear Garmin watches -- so they won't incorporate well into Apple's ecosystem).Beyond that, what does Peloton have to offer that Apple doesn't already have and, in many ways, surpass?
But yes - it’s the active lifestyle market that IS Apples most important connection and Peloton has a small piece at that table. Their talent and extensive classes are very valuable. And remember didn’t Peloton buy the gym equipment company as well? Name? Precor.Oh also - Pelotons operate using ANDRIODs software which is horrible on their devices. Obviously that closes off Apple easy integration to existing hardware.So - Apple would never buy their hardware. For what?? But would be great is a buyer that FULLY opens the Apple ecosystem to seamlessly integrates it like logging in, creating a Peloton account, using Apple Fitness, AirPods, HomePods, Apple TV, your Mac or bikes and treads that just work from your iPhone screen or dropping your iPads on them. That’s where it makes some sense.
