Message Subject Loud Commercials Banned From TV Starting TODAY + Where to file a complaint
Poster Handle the8track
Post Content
I choose the following option:
Ban companies from jacking the volume of commercials to ear-drum rupture levels.
 Quoting: -GooGooFlexy-

They don't do that. Broadcasters in the US have technical specifications that they must meet. They do not turn up the volume when a commercial comes on.

Commercials may sound louder simply because the advertiser has jam-packed the soundtrack of the commercial with sound. One might say that the amount of sound increases during a commercial. But the volume level does not.
