I'm sorry but while I happen to like the outcome of this law the fact that the government has the power to tell a private broadcaster what volume levels are allowable in their broadcasts offends my libertarian sensibilities.
If you really don't like how loud commercials are don't watch them.
The wonderful thing is that you now even have that option thanks to the wonders of TIVO.
If it still offends you then organize boycotts of products who allow their commercials to be broadcast at significantly higher volumes than the shows they are advertised with.
