Is every Blu-ray 1080p?

I'm not saying they should, just saying they could.

That isnt possible, The audio tracks are what take up the most space on a blu-ray. If you are re-releasing a dvd on Blu-ray just for the sake of saying its on blu-ray then they are wasting their time and might as well sold it on dvd as that isnt what a BD owner wants

The video takes up a lot more space than the audio.

it depends on what kind of audio is used and how many voice tracks there are so like if there is 4 audio tracks and a couple are like in Uncompressed and Dolby TrueHD then no video will not take as much but if you have like a Dolby Digital title then yes

So which Blu-ray discs are there where the audio tracks take up more space than the video? And how much space does the video take up on those discs, and how much space does the audio on those discs?

In theory this could occur but in practice highly unlikely.
