Bottled water is, almost without exception, some city's tap water. It may have been filtered before bottling but even that isn't terribly common. Penn and Teller did a show about it where they showed that people couldn't tell tap from bottled.
I agree that it is saner to filter tap water than it is to pay exhorbitent amounts of money for bottled water ... but it's still true that a lot of tap water needs to be filtered in the first place. I have lived places where the tap water had such a powerful metallic taste and smell that it made me almost nauseated to drink it.
