Quote from Section 5.4 (Sample Rate Conversion) of the Dolby 5.1 Multichannel Music Production Guidelines:"The converse [upsampling digital masters], however, is discouraged. That is, because a number of 44.1-kHz and 48-kHz sampled digital masters currently exist, it is tempting to zero pad odd samples and integer upsample to be able to claim 88.2-kHz/176.4-kHz or 96-kHz/192-kHz output, respectively. Because the resultant audio stream does not contain additional audio data and is not of higher quality then the original, it is recommended that the music simply be released in its original sample rate (fs) and bit depth."
