If you want to use player-hosted (P2P) servers like MC, you should use Unity's built-in NAT networking. Photon and Smartfox are for more centrally located servers, such as in an online game or MMO.

Smartfox is also per-month in pricing, I believe. Hosting is separate from the license you pay out to Exit Games, for example. Hosting itselt--meaning servers--is a completely different cost. You are looking at like 10 dollars a month for Exit Games to give you a license to allow like 500 CCU at a time on your Photon server, plsu the hosting which depends on how much server-power you want/need.
