I actually held your opinion about Uber ("I don't get it, what's wrong with normal taxis?") until recently. But so far all my Uber experiences have been stellar: friendly drivers, clean cars, quick and safe driving, plus getting a very exact estimate of when your Uber car will show up at your door. Meanwhile, my last couple experiences with taxis have been atrocious. The most recent one was in a foul-smelling cab with no air conditioning, whose driver took us 15 minutes out of the way because he didn't know the roads, and even was driving in the wrong lane AGAINST TRAFFIC at one point.
So, I now definitely think Uber's valuation is correct, because I'd pay just about anything to avoid another taxi experience.
