Quote - Generally I can't understand why this format didn't got much use

Mainly because everyone is happy with plain vanilla JPEG.

JPEG 2000 (J2K) is a really good schema though; the one place where it gets a decent amount of use is in Adobe Acrobat, from version 7 up (I think). 

J2K uses Discrete Wavelet Transform to compress image data (either lossless or lossy) - tons better than 'JPEG', which is horribly primitive in comparison.

If anyone has a lot of high resolution images they need to archive, I'd recommend J2K compressed PDFs: they're accessible by anyone with Adobe Reader and you can cut the data footprint in half compared to LZW Tiffs.
