Yep, it's true.
One large firm here in Brisbane (Neverfail 'Springwater') delivers those 15lt
bottles to peoples houses who have the (company owned) dispenser.
They fill the bottles at the factory, and when I was living down that way, I
never saw a truck going into unload 'springwater'. I seem to recall some
kerfuffle quite a few years back about them using tap water and just
filtering it.
