The decentralization revolution is upon us, and multiple services are embracing the ideology of cutting out the middleman.  Some of these services are more popular than others, such as AirBnB & Uber.  And the latter company is currently working on implementing a Bitcoin payment option, according a post on Reddit.

Not yet is the right answer as Litecoinguy mentioned as it could happen at some point in the future.
Likely once they get all their legal cases settled out in the court regarding what their service is classified as.

Would be nice if they could hammer out what Bitcoin is classified as while they are at it... Is it property or currency?  Haha...

There are so many conflicting news reports, but I guess the consensus is they are not integrating it for now.

Two reports dated July 8th.

No, at least for now... I think they've debunked the rumors, saying no.
