I'm happy to accept free lesser quality copies of movies I buy (and despite what you promote, the digital copies can be copied just as easily as DVDs and Blu-Ray movies).

I don't find it acceptable to pay for lesser quality content, knowing there's something better out there.
Uh, very simple. The difference between Digital Copy's 360p and 720p is massive compared to the difference between 720p and 1080p. To even see a difference between 720p and 1080p you need a TV 46"+, while the difference between 360p and 720p is evident even at 26" size. Diminishing returns.
