Tech's broken promises: Streaming is now just as expensive and confusing as cable. Ubers cost as much as taxis. And the cloud is no longer cheap

Some tech is getting pricier and looking a lot like the older services it was supposed to beat. From video streaming to ride-hailing and cloud computing.

Umm, are people coming over from an alternate universe? Cable was much more expensive and limited, streaming forced it to reform.
Ubers cost as much as taxis.
This shitty claim sounds false, specially with the antics taxis perform to make trips longer. If it does have any ring of truth, I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of it comes from having to acquiesce to the taxi sector, because they really cannot compete otherwise.

No shit, renting is more expensive in the longterm than owning something yourself? Tell me more.
I just was in Vegas. Taxi to/ from the strip is a set rate in a taxi of $22. Uber wanted $32 to / from. I took taxis both times. Uber has gotten very greedy
You mean the perfect example of the taxi industry coordinating against uber as a threat?
Those rates are also set to increase:
The fact is, if Uber had not existed there would be no Las Vegas taxicab flat rate as you know it.
