Here's an Atlantic article about the phenomenon from over 2 years ago now. My take is that rich people have too much money and spend it chasing nonsense and VCs who are happy to take a cut of the money that gets burned up in the process.
I felt much the same way about MoviePass while it lasted.
I suppose the case you could make is that you could envision autonomous vehicles stocked with inventory as a sort of rolling warehouse on public roads that deliver on demand, but it's hard to see the technology getting there in the near future.
