A cynic might say they're turning things down to leave head room to blast their commercials... But overall it's nice to see the loudness wars ending.

 

Congress supposedly passed a law a few years ago that mandated that commercials run their audio at the same level as the programs they're interrupting, but I don't know that they're actually complying with that... or if it would apply to an internet based streaming service like YouTube.

Don't even have to be a cynic... just an audio engineer. ;) Or just a listener. I've had some ear ringing moments with earbuds when commercials come first. I wish they would start complying with that rule.
