I have a 57" Toshiba that is Component/Composite/S-Video only. I swear that everything I have seen says no one is shipping media with the constraint switch on (HDMI only). Last I heard, it would actually be implemented in Blu-Ray sooner.

Has anyone seen a list of HDMI only disc for HD (720/1080)?

//I see people in dumb places like Amazon reviews say that it is on. As far as I know, it was not to be implemented until about 2010. Is my brain that rusty or is it just the normal cluless BS of 'review experts'?

I don't think any HD media has it to date, but I could certainly be mistaken. I'm sure if it was actually an issue, people here or at avsforum would be talking about it, and they're not.

For now you'll be fine. You may have to invest in a new TV in a couple years though (or play HDM over an HTPC with HDCP overrides to allow playback without HDMI... that's a lot of acronyms).
