here's the reason why bud; if your tv has a 1080p native resolution, then content with resolution under that will always look less sharp. i bet if you watch regular dvds on this tv you will notice the same thing. hd looks great but sd looks bad. some people don't realize if you buy an hd tv, you have to have hd content for it to really utilize it. Some hd tv's display sd content better than others. i have a 52in samsung (the 650 series) and i was thrilled once i realized that sd content looks amazing on it.
