This is a very fair point. Take Google for example, people may not remember, but they actually were trying to sell a product when they started. They were trying to sell enterprise search. And generally people didn't want to buy it.
But they had technology so compelling that business model fell into their lap.
Maybe they were lucky, but I would say that if you have a technology that no one wants to buy, but everyone wants to use... stick with it. There's something to it.
