After skimming over the JPEG-2000 article on Wiki I was led to wonder if
the real impetus for the standard has more to do with reliable and
efficient internet transfer of images than with a better way to store
them. Attention is given to a roughly 20% reduction in space but also a
greater resilience to bit errors in transmission.
I don't know about JPEG but certainly some lossless compression methods
might easily reproduce total garbage on a single bit error. Having
coded and tested some of them I'm keenly aware of their shortcomings.
