the text of the bill uses the word 'loudness' ... that's nice? Are you expecting people to call up their senators and explain the subtleties of audio perception and how the commercial that they just heard exploits the differences between perception and audio level to actually be louder than the primary content without reading any differently on a decibelmeter? Here's my prediction: this bill will have absolutely no effect other than to make running a television station more expensive. You can't solve this through legislation because you can't efficiently fine offenders. If you care about the loudness of commercials, stop watching television or start building a commercial solution.
