But, why not just download the 1080p version? Instead of doing the whole upscaling thing?

Because you can download faster and then upscale instantaneously

You'd need to have a wire made of bamboo to justify the 2gb more.
And with the added resolution you can even better scale it up.

Except it looks like shit compared to just getting a 1080 version.
