The main reason GIF superceeds PNG and JPG, is that it's so much easier to say!
GIF is pronounced simply Jiff, while JPG Jay·Pee·Gee and PNG Pee·En·Gee take considerably much more effort to pronounce, and sound down-right silly when used in verbal conversation.
Us geeks already have enough trouble trying to explain mIRC Em·Eye·Arr·See without sounding childish or demeaning, that some have even resorted to Merk.
I think if PNG just had a vowel in it, the format would be more readily embrassed by all.
