I've never used anything else on my D300, D800e, and D4. There really is no downside:
No information is lost just like using a ZIP file.
File sizes are smaller reducing storage space and making file transfers faster.
The computer time to decompress is not noticeable and probably less than the extra time needed to read an uncompressed file.
