The problem is that so many websites are so bandwidth intensive that trying to use the internet is a real pain. It really is the preponderance of flash and big images that creates a bottleneck for dial-up users. I was in the boonies a few months ago and was stuck with dialup, so all I could really do was check my email - websites like Myspace, YouTube, and Yahoo mail were incredibly slow. Dialup is functionally half the speed it used to be or worse.
