Streaming service ads would get volume limits like regular TV.
This bill aims to stop sudden loud commercials on streaming services. It would make the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) create new rules. These rules would keep ad volumes consistent on online videos, just like on regular TV. This means a smoother sound experience for people watching shows over the internet.
Today, commercial advertisements on video programming delivered over the internet often have inconsistent and sometimes much louder volumes compared to the shows they accompany. After this bill, the Federal Communications Commission would be required to create rules within 18 months to ensure these internet ads have volume levels that are substantially equivalent to those on traditional television, making for a more consistent listening experience.
