Comment on Ask HN: Examples where you make something people want, but are unable to profit?parent

No, I wrote exactly what I meant. As others have pointed out you can use many other free tools, or even free versions of Visual Studio itself.

People pay absurd money (up to $10k per seat) for Team Edition which provides entire enterprise developer/tester/database/architect/team workflow instead of just IDE.

If you build something truly valuable people will pay, so long as they have the money. Like I said, the trick is to find the right people.
