IMO png isnt worth it, bitmap format using zlib compression is way smaller than png. Although I like the idea of transparency capability, but again bitmap supports that to.
Of course, it could provide to be easier
Who knows. Each to his own ^_^
But you could argue the process of changing PNG to BMP could be slower than just compress/uncompress. Especially on the scale size of the typical MS tileset. Such a pity, should break it up into smaller parts. IMO 128 x 128
