Let's not get ahead of ourselves. We've had taxis and black cars for decades, it's nothing new. What happens when every existing taxi company has an app? Because that's what's happening.

Then what we have is Uber/Lyft/whatever trying to avoid any regulation, while everyone else with the same thing are actually doing it. So disruptive!

People drank coffee before starbucks.

Not sure about the point you're trying to make, but if you somehow think Starbucks is "disrupting" coffee consumption, please think again.
