I am surprised that they have not kept up with the professional photography, though. Who is going to be the guinea pig to book a property with 6 blurry photos in a foreign country? It's a waste of everyone's time: host, guest, and AirBnB approving the listing. One time I saw a listing for a shared room in Paris that had one picture containing only a bed.

They do still offer it to the better options on their service. Often the ones without pro photos are new or not popular. I think they can make the assumption that if an owner won't put in much effort with their own photos, they won't make a very attentive host. It's trivial to take average photos, ask a friend for help, trade accommodation with a photographer or even pay for a professional.
