Peter - See how you get the quality of a 8+ mb tiff in only 137kb? Even at 999% zoom you get great quality. 999% is the max for DjVu whereas with MrSID you can continue to zoom and zoom until you are lost in a pixel. (That's closer than I believe is necessary [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif[/img] ) So far I'm liking the DjVu approach more than MrSID. DjVu seems more flexible, and its encoder incorporates a viewer that's lacking from MrSID's encoder.

That photo you posted earlier that shows the bridge and the hills would be a great example to DjVu. I'd love to be able to zoom in and explore a highres scan of that photo.
