One good example is that most Blu-ray movie discs are just DVDs converted to take more space (quality was not increased)

I have rented lots of Blu-rays and never found one that was upscaled from DVD to 1080p. Can you provide more details please since I am having a hard time believing that's true.

I did a quick Google search and found this article [1] ... I recall seeing a website that was listing Blu-ray titles with true-1080p but I can't find it right now. Cable does something similar by highly compressing HD content.

Which ones? I can't remember ever coming across one.
