Even when taxis are readily available I still prefer Uber. UberX is cheaper than a cab for many thing and it's much less hassle. I get in, the driver drives, then I get out... no fumbling with cash or swiping cards, signing things, and worrying about tips. In San Francisco I can even get a yellow taxi cab via Uber.
Is it worth $3B? I don't know... but it's certainly not as insane as some other valley companies.
