Hm seems interesting, JPEG is already an extremely small size but I guess even smaller with the same quality is always better. I wonder if support for this will manage to make it into Firefox 4.1 (considering Beta 7 of FX 4 is the feature freeze there's not much hope of it before then) and IE9, that will probably be fairly critical in ensuring it's success or failure.
I would've thought improving lossless compression would be a higher priority - if that compression can approach the jpeg file size, it should begin to supercede it.
Smaller file sizes for same quality is always a bonus though.
am i missing something:
Image 1 = 42595 bytes
Image 2 = 566192 bytes
:shocked2:
