Yes, upscaling isn't very good at all. In fact, technically, it actually degrades the original picture, and it's only due to the limitations of LCD and Plasma displays that this can ever be seen as a good thing, although "less bad" is probably a more appropriate, albeit clumsy, term.

The marketing spiel that upscaling turns DVD into "HD Quality" is at best extremely misleading, and seems aimed at the same people who bought the nonsense about CD quality audio on DTV broadcasts.
