Calm act passes, but did it make a difference?

So have you noticed any dif­fer­ence?

Well Calm act has been passed, it took over a year to do it, but final­ly it is done, but are TV pro­duc­ers doing any­thing about it yet?

TV viewers, rejoice: You'll no longer get blown out of your seat by the difference in volume between the television program you're watching and the commercials that air during it.

The answer is well not yet, or at least we have not noticed any reduc­tion in the loud obnox­ious com­mer­cials air­ing on most of our TVs, in fact, the loud­ness of most com­mer­cials has remained unchanged, so this is a good ques­tion and its answer is some­thing that is rel­e­vant.

So what is hap­pen­ing, are we going to one day be free from all the noise pol­lu­tion that com­mer­cials have been blast­ing us with since 1960 there have been hun­dreds of thou­sands of com­plaints, but there has been no action.

Years and years and years, but no action, why now?

Could it have any­thing to do with the FCCs attempt to claim the author­i­ty to reg­u­late the inter­net and per­haps cable tv in the near future.

Wel­come to the future wel­come to your life con­trolled by gov­ern­ment agents.

you would think that prod­uct man­u­fac­tur­ers, could find a way to reduce the vol­ume on the com­mer­cials they choose to show but not so.

They appear to be just stu­pid enough to get caught in the trap that alleged­ly has been laid by the FCC.

Because if they con­tin­ue to do this even­tu­al­ly the FCC will right­ly argue that they need to reg­u­late cable because cable will not reg­u­late itself.
