Simple common sense pretty much negates this headline and its premise. To be honest, I can't say that I have a compelling interest in protecting hotel market share. As a resident of NYC, however, I do have an interest in protecting my relatively cheap (but in-the-real-world-expensive-as-hell) rent. I see more and more people with suitcases leaving and entering buildings in the neighborhood, and I have to wonder what that is doing to rent prices. It's still a gut thing right now, but the case feels like it's getting more compelling.
