I think that was the whole point of his response - they *have* to. It is 
no different to any other industry with things like Sage, Word, Excel 
and IIS all being forced upon people as an expensive and often inferior 
industry standard.

Take my girlfriend who is a vet from New Zealand, most clinics use 
something like "vetcare" or something for their patient records and 
detailed database but her current job decided they didn't want to pay 
the exorbitant price so they created their own. The only problem is that 
when new or locum surgeons come they have difficulty understanding it at 
first.
