Pro. vs pro-sumer vs consumer

I don't get the labels.

1. Everyone is a consumer, pros and non-pros alike...

I don't know about anyone else but I really REALLY HATE the term "consumer".

The term customer seemed more polite, more deferential, (The customer is always right, anyone remember that?), but somehow consumer just brings images of gluttons stuffing their faces.

is it just me?
