AirBnB is winning all over the country. Read one of the VCA's they negotiated. The cities, towns, counties got virtually nothing from AirBnB and many are trying to void the VCA's.
AirBnb has lawsuits going against numerous cities & states and have been dumping millions into fighting against any regulation or attempt to make them collect taxes and insure advertised rentals, meet local ordinances.
RIght now, their huge advantage, is the taxing authorities, can't afford to fight them. If the IRS opts to wade into the battle, that could change the dynamic. No one beats the IRS.
As of right now, AirBnB vs the USA & State Zoning Regulations, is like Uber vs Taxi companies on steroids. We all know who won the Uber/Taxi battle.
