I read just last week that the FCC is changing the rules. Previously, the volume level of an advertisement could be no louder than the loudest part of the show in which it is embedded. Now they are about to limit the advertising volume to the average volume of the show.
Since the loudest part of a show usually does not come right before a commercial comes on, the commercial blares at you.
