    Home releases and streaming need a reduced dynamic range mix as a selectable audio channel. TV compressors almost never cut it.

      I recently watched a show on a streaming service with several audio options for boosted dialogue. This should be standard for all releases.

      That doesn’t explain watching movies in the theater and still not being able to understand what the hell they are saying (e.g., Dune or Tenet).

      What’s worse is TVs that lie and say they have 5.1 surround and force the streaming to use it. Shout out to Netflix and Prime for letting you manually select Stereo though.
