And it's an ad to convince people to buy the machines as a Christmas gift, so they have to show them being given as a gift. But the thing is, no one is spending over $2000 on a machine for someone without asking first. It's like the ads where someone buys their husband a car. "Oh, honey you bought me a car!" No one does that, there is always going to be a discussion if the person wants it. But the ad has to plant the idea, and showing the discussion would be boring.

If the Peleton video feed were on a wall sized screen and included large rear view mirror feeds that made it seem you were riding across a battlefield, with people crashing and bombs going off around you, with zombies, or ISIS, on your tail, I think it’d provide a hell of a cardio workout.
