Loudness of TV Commercials


Why do some TV commercials seem significantly louder than the program materials to which they are attached?

I remember when cable tv was promised "commercial-free" YEAH RIGHT, that blew out like the wind.

Now, they added the annoying animation commercials running along the bottom of your screen DURING programming, along with the station's permanent insignia in the corner, they can't get enough, can they ?

So you suffer VISUALLY and AUDIBLY, plus we're PAYING for these services.
