I assume you are talking about airports. Guess what, they still exist in many places. And on the other hand, for US, other than a few big cities, the "normal" taxi experience is that you call a number and maybe a taxi shows up in half an hour. With Uber, that becomes 10 minutes or less, with live map updates. Give me that and I'll be happy to forget about Uber.
If drivers are actually driving people around and earning money, potentially getting more income in the end, with a trade-off of inconvenience for riders to wait a few minutes for the next ride to arrive, do you consider that positive or negative? Sounds like a much more efficient model to me.
