So TVNZ has finally cottoned on to the fact that making ads much louder than programmes is hugely annoying. Or, rather, they've finally getting around to fixing it.
Truth be told, I was assuming they couldn't do anything about it because they hadn't before now.
Turns out they were just biding their time, saving the change for a rainy day when their public profile needed a bit of a boost.
But without the constant use of the remote to turn down (or in my case mute) the ads and the show back up, how will remote-control makers, battery suppliers and TV makers (I'm assuming that there is a miniscule amount of wear and tear caused within the TV by frequent volume changes) survive? Surely it must have been in their interests that the change has taken so long. Why else would TVNZ have made us suffer for so long?
