I would like to know who the brain child is that came up with the idea of playing compressed sound/ "MUSIC" during the movie? I just tried to watch the begining of FaceOff and could not even hear the actor's words. If someone thinks that blasting the public adds to the movie, then WHY didn't the directors do it in the first place? I have had programming ruined with this sound-over idea on other cable channels too. I am NOT some kid who has ear buds in their ears all day that the network thinks is deaf. How can a network want me to watch their programming-commericals if they are going to blast the audio and "Enhance" the soundtrack of the programming?

NEWS FLASH: This method DOES NOT make drama or action BETTER !
I know how to change the channel.

What the heck are you talking about? Maybe it is your local cable company?

This is an absurd idea, it's hard to believe what you are saying is true.

all you want to do is watch a movie

yeah bottom ad screens are distracting. There' an alotted commerical time for a reason !
