Minisites = Mirrorsites?

    Mirror websites according to Wikipedia:
    A mirror site is the hosting of multiple websites with conceptually similar content but using different URLs. Some search engines give a higher rank to results where the keyword searched for appears in the URL.

    Minisites according to Wikipedia:
    A minisite is a website by which companies offer information about one specific product or product group. Typically, a minisite is enhanced by various multimedia content, such as an animated, narrated introduction, and accompanied by a visual scheme which complements the product well.

    Isn't a minisite a mirror website by default concerning that specific subject?

    If I should believe Wikipedia, most minisites could be seen as mirrorsites because they share conceptually the same content as the main website regarding that product or service.

    What is your take on this?
