http://techfandu.blogspot.com/2009/09/what-is-freedom-bucket.html says "Probably you should read this http://www.openformats.org/main" to understand more about free formats. But http://www.openformats.org/en6 even lists jpeg format as free. Bit confused here. If jpeg is free, why do we have to convert jpeg to png?
