Want this too?

64 people want the volume on tv commercials to be the same as the program we are watching. Stop blasting us out of our chairs.

They are so loud they hurt my eardrums!
How about if we get the makers of televisons to build in 'commercial volume' control features that allow us to set the volume for all commercials? Think about it.

They do have a "one-button" solution to loud commercials. It's called the "mute" button. I use it every time.

A law was actually passed about this about a year ago. So far...I see no difference. I just posted an ask about TV remotes that will drop the volume with one click to contend with this. Put the power in our own hands! :)

Years ago, networks were not allowed to play the commercials louder, but I guess they quit enforcing it. Why do you think babies look when the commercials come on?
