This is true, but the super 7 jackpots never got this high (the biggest was 38 million, but it hardly ever got over $20m or so) or had anything like maxmillions. And they started out at 2.5 million, not 10 million like the Max. When they made 6/49 $2 each it was the same idea - bigger jackpots, not better chances.

I like the Western 649 myself and I believe that it will soon be changed to something "bigger and better". ie: more expensive.
How much is the western 6/49? 2/$1? I live in BC, and we have the BC49, which used to be 50 cents apiece, now $1 each. The jackpots are always $2million though.
