Give it time; HDMI based screen shots will become practical eventually.

Right now, except in the case of A/B comparisons of standard definition DVD screen shots, you have to rely on the integrity of the reviewer's opinion. You like to do that, as I recall. ;0)

As I pointed out in a thread below, DVDBeaver is currently the best place for keeping up with up-to-date multi-region & format release information and A/B comparisons; Gary Tooze, who runs the site, would probably be the first to admit that his efforts aren't 100% perfect, but his site is quite useful, not to mention easy to navigate.

The rest of the site looks great too.

  Soon after I upgraded to Dishnetwork's HD receiver, I felt the urge to dump DVD and go with Hi-def video media instead.
  - I understand the problem. As soon as there were two stereo FM stations in Boston... - clarkjohnsen 13:55:19 10/25/07 (0)
    ...I bought a Scott stereo tuner and always had it on one of them. But I got over it!
    
    Yes HD is a thrill. Add to that the fact that people come over and ooh and ahh over it the way they never did for my audio. Feh!
