> It's quite possible that the ride share firms will move to a subscription-based model (closer to Netflix) rather than a consumption-bsaed model (closer to Blockbuster) in the future. Paying per-ride has its hassles. A monthly fixed subscription model with predictable consumption limits can change the picture.
Yea, I'm not buying it. People generally won't switch to a subscription unless they think it's going to save them money. And these companies are struggling for profitability as it is.
Me neither. What pay-per-ride hassle? The rental companies I use have my credit card on file.
Actually, from a business use perspective, pay-per-ride is probably a lot simpler. I expense the rental. A company is probably not going to typically let you expense a subscription fee unless it were some subscription for the whole company which seems as if it would be challenging for a variety of reasons.
