Sound Leveling

Rant of the moment. I know there are pretty fancy tools that do this, but why in the world isn't it very simple and cheap to put a setting on radios or iTunes (if you know how to do this on iTunes, please tell me) that makes everything come out at something close to the same volume. I'm sitting here with it on shuffle, listening to some Debussy nice and calm. And then wham -- an opening harmonica riff from Kenny Neal and Billy Branch that nearly knocks me off my chair. Had the Debussy been louder, I wouldn't have been floored by that launching harmonica.
But it did at least knock me out of my stupor... Flipping through pages to check pagebreaks is a dreadfully dull last step of the printing. (Not the Precalc book, sigh. Just the next printing of Intro Geometry.)
