M$Score the pomegranate with a paring knife. Don't cut it into segments, just score the "peel" or the thick outside of the pomegranate.
2)
Prepare a large ice cold bowl of water. Put ice in the water to chill it right down. This will help release the seeds from the rest of the fruit.
3)
Place the pomegranate in the bowl of water and begin to break it apart. You will notice that the seeds fall to the bottom very quickly while the rest of the fruit (the stuff you don't eat) will all float to the top.
4)
Pour the water and pomegranate through a strainer. Rise with cool water to release the small bits of rind still stuck on the seeds.

Optionally, if you're like me and like to use every last bit of everything you cook, you could strain the pomegranate water into another bowl and reserve. When reduced, this water forms a sweet stock or base of a salad dressing.
I found this video of someone who uses the same process:

I worked in a couple of produce departments going through school and learned a lot of weird stuff about fruit and veggies.

M$Step 2: Place a bowl on the table.
Step 3: Picking one of the quarters, pull back on the skin at the two ends. This should push out the seed area.
Step 4: Pick out the seeds in clumps, pushing them away from the yellowish internal dividing skins.
Step 5: Peel off any remnants of the internal skins from the seeds.
Step 6: Repeat steps 3-5 for the next three quarters.
Step 7: Enjoy eating the seeds.

Cut off the crown then cut the pomegranate into sections. Place the sections in a bowl of water then roll out the arils (juice sacs) discarding the peel and pith, leaving just the arils in the water. The water reduces staining and contains the peeling process. Strain the water through a strainer to catch the arils and proceed to use them as desired.
