'Consumer' is a cold, impersonal word. 'Customer' hints that there's a human on the other end.

My web service client is a JSON consumer, but I'm a store's customer. It doesn't work the other way.

I read your original comment as you wanting more references to 'consumer', which, of course, I found a bit odd.
