Market share has nothing to do with quality.

GM has the biggest market share for cars but they don't make the best cars.
It just means that too many people are willing to buy inferior products.

Discerning customers will select the best products and will be willing to
pay a little bit more.

Customers will get what they want and they will be the judge of which
is best. If a manufacturer sells junk it's unlikely that they'll have
a market for their product.

Face it everyone has their own opinion on what's best and what's
second best. Your opinion is not my opinion. How fortunate we are
that we have several options to choose!

Certainly many buy only on price, and at both ends of the spectrum.

Some buy only the lowest price, and others buy only the most expensive.

Exactly my point. Successful companies don't necessarily have the best
products -- they just sell the most (see Wal-Mart, GM, Microsoft, etc...)

Likewise, McDonald is the most successful restaurant but they don't sell the
most healthy products.

Smart customers will look for the best as opposed to the most.
