I don’t know if it has a subscription per se, but holy crap/crab

    I have the 2450 with a 22” screen. While I can use it without the internet, I really enjoy running along with a trainer and virtually going to the most amazing places on the planet. I honestly won’t use it if I can’t have that feature.

      Ok I can see how some people want that feature.

      Me, I just put a movie on and run while watching it. I have never had a trainer - virtual or otherwise.

        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?
