Possibly quite correct. The DCT is a pretty damn good image transform. The problem with it is computational cost and the ijg libraries frankly suck.
For something like WebP to get any traction is if it's even simpler and easier to implement and computationally more efficient. Right now the google pages about webp seem to be out of commission so I can't look into this part myself.
