The reason is that Reb Moshe allows cholov stam because the government watches out for mixing milk from a non-kosher animal so there is mirthas, fear involved. The question they put up is if the chachomim forbid milk from a non-jew with a count or we are doing it from custom which makes the prohibition biblical because of a neder. Certainly if someone can get cholov yisroel then he should rather get it.

Thats all on the assumption that pricing and quality are equal or close to equal
..but everyone knows that milk and many dairy products spoil way before its expiration date and everyone knows that they are way more costly especially cheese and cheese products and everyone knows that heimishe products are made way more inferior in quality in general.
