I am now archiving a second copy of my Tiff files as JPEG2000 files with a
filesize gain of 3-4. JPEG2000 is a lossless compression format.

Available as a free Photoshop plug-in at:
http://www.fnordware.com/j2k/

There are two drawbacks:
1- Its a little bit slower than others format when reading or writing.
2- Its not widely distributed yet.

Cheers,
Andre
