If a new service comes along and is better enough than what came before that it upheaves the industry, I'm sorry, but you can't just regulate it away. Napster may have been shut down, but the music industry is still reeling from the effects of piracy, and now we have services like Spotify that compete with "free" directly. (Oh, and piracy is bigger than ever.)

People love Uber, Lyft, and Airbnb. They won't be going anywhere.
