Agreed. Ride sharing is a faceless commodity and people will take the cheapest option. AirBnB is slightly different because sometimes the apartment is nicer than the hotel, or offers a full kitchen. Or is an entire house and you're planning a trip with a group of friends or family. The reasons go on and on. But the original comment's point about Lyft is spot on, it's a shame we have to derail that thread because of his misreading of Airbnb.
