I use PNG in a QuickTime wrapper when I need lossless files and can make do with an 8-bpc codec. For photo-real images, the files are half the size of Animation; it has an alpha channel; and it's nigh-universal (installed with standard QuickTime). The performance leaves something to be desired, but that's OK for my purposes.
