Not much selection. To get a ride to Philadelphia (and it's overnight) I'd have to get to Boston, 2-3 hours away. And then I'd have to drive in Boston (if you've never done it, I hope you remain blessed in your ignorance). Safer and easier to just drive to Philadelphia and I wouldn't have to pay to leave my car somewhere.
Also i don't want to go to Philadelphia, really. It's just one of the few options.
Eh, I've driven in MD and particularly in the Baltimore - DC corridor, I'll take Boston.
As for Megabus, they used to have pickups in the college towns of Amherst and Northampton but dropped them a few years ago. They were trying to get some of the student traffic to Boston and NYC, but as I understand it that did not work out for them. Peter Pan still reigns in the area for that.
