JPEG is the standard, is it not? Virtually every Internet graphic is in JPEG format (with a few GIFs thrown in). Personal digital cameras format pics in JPEG. So, why does Microsoft think it's necessary to come up with a new format?...Oh yeah. *Monopoly*

Steven Wells, a part-time professional photographer, said he sees promise in the new file format. A real professional photographer wouldn't use a compressed format. They aim for detail.
