I am interested in finding out more about pricing.
ECW overview
When you compress your imagery into ECW format, the result is a much smaller single file that can be stored, sent, and displayed even on small devices. ECW technology provides exceptional compression, capable of reducing terabyte-sized files to five percent of their original size, while retaining the image’s full visual quality. For ultimate image delivery performance, ECW Protocol efficiently streams ECW and JPEG2000 imagery over networks.
ECW capabilities
"Using GeoCompressor and ECW has significantly enhanced our productivity, and the cost saving on time and disk space is enormous."

Visually lossless compression
Wavelet compression algorithm achieves 15:1 compression ratios at a visually lossless quality level.
Fastest compression and decompression
ECW compression is at least 50% faster at compressing images than other compression techniques.
ECW for ArcGIS Server
With ECW support, ArcGIS Server users can leverage compression technology capable of quickly decompressing and opening massive files.
