Can someone tell me the difference between the C compilers available??

I'm looking for one, just to do simple basic C programming, looking for one I've
seen the following: Turbo C, MS C, and Quick C.

But why is quick C only about $60 and the others are around $300, what does
the more expensive ones offer that the Quick C doesn't.

Is it more libraries, a super-editor, a better compiler??

Could you send me some answers and suggestions of what I really need.
