Advantages
- It is simple to implement because it uses a mature compression standard (JPG) with well-developed libraries, and it's an intraframe method of compression.
- It tolerates rapidly changing motion in the video stream, whereas compression schemes using interframe compression can often experience unacceptable quality loss when the video content changes significantly between each frame.
- Because the M-JPEG standard emerged from a market-adoption process rather than a standards body, it enjoys broad client support — most major web browsers and players provide native support and plug-ins are available for the rest.
- Minimal hardware is required because it is not computationally intensive.

“When the manipulations of childhood are a little larceny, they may grow and change with the child into qualities useful and admire in the grown-up world. When they are the futile struggle for love and concern and protection, they may become the warped and ruthless machinations of adults who seek in the advantages of power what they could never win as children.”
—Leontine Young (20th century)
