Something that might make the diference is that in Europe SMS isn't an optional service that some have, others don't. Everybody has it. And they're fast and reliable.
And they're really popular. An SMS can be cheaper than a short call. They're usefull for situations where speaking on the phone in inconvenient, like a class, a meeting, a noisy place or just because you're hanging out with your friends and don't want to step away to make/take a phone call.
We don't have unlimited SMS. People send lots of SMS here, they're a huge source of profit. Sometimes I spend more money in SMS than in voice calls.
The only spam I get is from the mobile phone operator and its very rare (2 or 3 a year).However, some people get a bit more. In any case, don't pay for receiving messages, unless you're in roaming.
