Check out their other product MrSID... It is great for browsing massive (50 gig+) images on the web.
It is heavily used in Remote Sensing, online mapping, and Web based-Geographic Information Systems.
It is very slick!
In general, with 'free' software vs 'paid' software, I think the corporate world has the advantage of advertising their product. But this corp produces high-quality, useful products!
But you poor yanks are going to have to suffer. I guess suffering through four years of Bush is the price to pay for a real Democracy. (Not just a two party system). Suck it up and vote Nader!
