18,2 billion - what year is it - 1999 again?

Excellent idea, yet it seems that there's plenty of legal issues that may conveniently arise in favour of cab drivers.

Be it that they would infringe on cab licenses, would be curious where the line is drawed between a cab and a transportation service.

Theoretically, in case you can rent a car, or even rent a car with a driver, the same legal construction could be used for uber. On the other hand, it's, even more, using your car for commercial transportation on request.

Curious if there's any litigation going on already.

I know that for example these drink'n'drive drivers over here that pick you up and drive you and your car home are dead scared of getting caught transporting people in their (not the driver's) vehicle, so they can't be accused of giving someone a ride without a license.
