I curios to know, How can we to verify that compression is loss-less?

Loss less compression suggests that J2K can be used for archiving also.
Am I right here?

Few extra seconds for compression is not a problem for me, as long as I can 
reduce 
my CD bulk. 
So, Can I start archiving using J2K instead of TIFF?  

Thanks
