Compression is too high, or quality set too low, resulting in low quality resized images with lots of distortion.
I would suggest that this should be a feature request to build in a setting to control how much compression you do to your images. Essentially controling the -quality flag on the imagemagick convert.
i think this would be useful.
the only thing that's tricky about this is that the quality is used differently depending on the format: http://www.imagemagick.org/script/command-line-options.php#quality
there's now a patch for this on: http://drupal.org/node/155313
