GP is absolutely correct. Whole Foods does not cater to the Walmart market. In SaaS terms, WF is Enterprise which sometimes dips into Premium with its 365 brand. Those complaining about WF prices are those that want to spend $5/mo on basic service.

P.S. I want a Ferrari. I don't want to pay $150k for one. So I'm not Ferrari's market.

That's a terrible analogy. Walmart is the massive enterprise company built around high volume and low margins. WF is the SaaS provider selling nice but very overpriced audio and video software to some niche of the film industry.
