“We find that WhatsApp, Facebook, and digital maps on phones are highly valued by our subjects with median compensations for losing 1 mo of access of €536, €97, and €59, respectively. Other applications such as Insta- gram (€6.79), Snapchat (€2.17), and LinkedIn (€1.52) are valued an order of magnitude lower and Skype (€0.18) and Twitter (€0.00) have very low median valuations. (Average valu- ations or valuations for any given consumer will typically differ from median valuations.) In follow-up interviews, respondents reported that the strikingly high values for WhatsApp reflected its tight integration into their daily lives for coordination with family, friends, colleagues, schoolmates, and others and the high compensation needed for being digitally separated from this network.”
I have tried booking Airbnb many times. In my case, each time it was much more expensive than the hotel room I could find via priceline (even more once I include the extra fees from the Airbnb's fine prints).
