Have you ever been watching and enjoying a program or movie on TV, and all of a sudden got shocked and irritated by loud commercial breaks? Then you turned the sound volume level down, and then got annoyed when your favorite program got back on just to realize you are not hearing a word because now the volume is too low? And worse, got into a fight over remote or sound levels with whoever you are watching TV with? If you live in the U.S., chances are you know what I am talking about. Well, no more of that starting today!
As of today a law is in effect that mandates commercials' sound level be the same as that of the TV programs. This is probably one of the best regulations FCC has passed, saving people's mental health, sanity, and relationships! Learn more here.
