The cynicism in this comment really bums me out. You think it's ok to give customers a buggy product, and expect them to report the bugs, because they don't really have a choice and every other product is buggy too. You say you don't like the situation, but you're doing nothing to challenge it either.
Is your motto "When life gives you lemons, make a market for lemons?"
Fair enough, it's arguably cynical to tell the children that Santa Claus isn't real. However, we're all adults here.
The highest-quality software can not win in the software market. This is evident from the software that is out there owning the market.
Quality is a trade-off, if you spend too many resources on it, you can not compete. Catching those last few bugs takes exponentially more effort.
Moreover, there are snake oil salesmen at every corner, telling you that if only you adopted some methodology, your defect rate would plummet. It's easy to get lost in that, not actually delivering a product.
