Ive been watching 1080p Quicktime movie trailer downloads from Apple's site. How does Blu-Ray compare to these? Look the same or better?

My local stores seem to run Blu-Ray demo units through dodgy split video systems. Ive been hardly impressed by the quality so far.
1080p movie trailers from the Net look nice, but I assume there is a lot of compression going on. Does Blu-ray look a lot better?

Movies on Blu-ray are also 1080p resolution, and if you're downloading the trailers from Apple, they're even encoded with the same codec as the trailers (H.264). As long as the displaying screen supports 1080p, and you're using a proper digital connection, the quality you should get off of a Blu-ray disc should be as good as the 1080p trailers.
