Australia is the blast o matic. Same with Meadowlands, very loud. Pocono Downs is loud. I have always wondered why this is and it must just be Roberts that is having the issue. As someone else mentioned this is such an easy fix. I have called Roberts in the past about this but got the feeling I was talking with someone who had no way of correcting the issue.
I spoke with some professional tv audio friends. They said Rogers probably just takes in the feeds and then redistrubtes them. The problem is that there is no industry standard for internet audio the way there is for broadcast audio. The levels depend on the type of studio that sends out the feed. An in-house semi/pro studio might send out a signal that is not broadcast standard.

Until there is an internet standard it will continue to be the Wild West.
