I love sega and had the genesis/32x/segaCD/Saturn/dreamcast (snatcher ftw) but the dreamcast was the double edged sword of the downfall of sega in the hardware business, it was an amazing machine with amazing IPs (shenmue anyone?) but it came at a bad time , CD burners weren't quite in full force yet so they put literally no copy protection on it.

Want a game your bro just spent $50 on? Easy, just burn a copy and slap it in your dreamcast and turn it on.

Seriously I'm sure the guy who passed on the extra dev cost to employ basic copy protection on that machine is living under an overpass somewhere in japan

I use to buy full dreamcast games like this for $5 online back in the early 2000s.
