Sega charged $22 per month to play online for the Dreamcast. Where was the outcry back then?

Sega.Net was also an internet provider, you didn't need to pay a separate fee for your ISP, Sega WAS your ISP. So overall, a massive difference to xbox live and PSN.

even if true which i doubt it is, its still too expensive. Internet there where i live costs 10 bucks. Ad 5 or 6 and its still cheaper and a lot faster.

Internet was a whole lot more expensive back in the days. Flatrates weren't even the norm. Most of the time you paid by minute or based on traffic.

bottom line: Don't compare anything from the past with today's standards.
