Some reports is that is saves space by half. that's a LOT of bandwidth. And for storage? It's cheaper now but as storage and bandwidth increases, so does the size of media. Higher def images and videos can now be easily and quickly shared so they are. Being able to decrease most images by half is an insanely huge advantage.
