England needs to have this, the mute button is the most used button here.

I don't suffer with adverts being loud, as most of the time, my shows are recorded, and I can just fast forward the buggers Tongue

I never watch television so it makes very little difference to me... But when I'm at other people's houses, loud advertisements are very annoying - still, I think Internet Advertisements are worse, such as those at Mail.com which often work-around Ad Block. Even worse than that, are sites which won't allow you access until you disable any ad blocker, well, personally, I don't feel like letting you have ad revenue until I know if your content is worth my time.
