Question
I JUST FOUND YOUR WEBSITE AND I THINK IT IS GREAT AND I WILL REFER BACK TO IT OFTEN. NOW FOR MY QUESTION: I HAVE BEEN AN AVID VIEWER OF:AMC; OLTL; & GH SINCE '65. I GUESS YOU CAN SAY I'M HOOKED. I TAPE EVERYDAY INC WHEN WE GO ON VAC; CAMPING; ETC. BUT WHAT REALLY HAS ALWAYS BUGGED ME IS THE BACKGROUND MUSIC. IT SEEMS LIKE THEY HAVE NO IDEA THAT IT IS SO LOUD AT THE MOST IN-OPORTUNE TIME....AS WHEN AN ACTOR IS TALKING IN A LOW TONE OF VOICE THE MUSIC GETS LOUDER. DON'T THEY HAVE PEOPLE VIEW THE RESULTS OF WHAT WAS JUST TAPED? IT IS SO AGGRAVATING THAT THE SO CALLED PROFESSIONALS THAT HELP PUT THE SHOWS ON EACH DAY DO NOT REALIZE THIS. IS THERE ANYTHING THAT CAN BE DONE TO FIX THIS PROBLEM. WHEN THIS HAPPENS, I REWIND THE TAPE A FEW SECONDS, TURN UP THE VOLUME AND HIT PLAY. BUT ASIDE FROM THAT, THIS SHOULD NOT HAVE TO HAPPEN. YOUR THOUGHTS PLEASE.  THANK YOU.

Answer
i have noticed that tony, and truthfully i don't know what could be done to fix. i guess we could always write abc and tell them. i don't understand why this a need for music when people are talking to begin with.
