Are the compressed images as stable as non-compressed
images?  Or might there be any other issues with
compression?  I never looked into it, and tend not to
compress as I've never been sure.

AFAIK the only reason to select one type of compression over the other is the time-space tradeoff (high compression is small but takes longer to compress and decompress for instance). I find that if you corrupt an image file, you're generally in trouble anyway ...
