It's a strategy: let the market mature some, allowing others to make mistakes, giving you a view of what works best, and then launch a product and launch it to your existing consumer base. For example, how long ago did Apple Music come out, with how many existing competitors, and how successful was it? Apple has deep pockets, can do packaged deals for subscriptions as well as your iPhone, Apple Watch, laptop, etc. It wouldn't surprise me if Apple didn't get into a few other markets that Elon is targeting as well, though Apple's careful to not launch too many products at once - it may put them at a disadvantage over decades; of course they can always buy companies in a market they want to be in.
