So as I was basically always a taxi passenger, I never found the price of the Arlanda Express that bad. Looking at Heathrow Express, Narita Express, and Oslo I can of just write it off as the price for an airport train. Though being from Copenhagen, I should have a frame of reference.
In the case of Oslo, Flytoget is a total ripoff in my opinion, considering that the time gained vs NSB/Vy is rather minimal, nor is there any significant increase in "comfort". Atleast in the case of Narita, there is a clear benefit to taking Narita Express or Keisei Skyliner compared to local trains or buses and whatnot.
