Actually, I used to work for our local cable company. I was in charge of the local commercial insertion. You know when you're watching TV and you hear those 3-4 tones just before a commercial starts? That's what starts the commercials if your cable company inserts local commercials on that channel. And yes, the volume was hiked up higher on commercials. It was intentional.

I can say for sure what the major networks do but I suspect their commercials are a tad higher too. I can definitely hear a difference.
