Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Commercials are broadcasted for about 15-30 seconds in between TV programs. Infomercials don’t last shorter than 15 minutes. As said, they’re long-form advertisements that are usually on-air for 30 minutes long, without interruptions. Some infomercial programs last for as long as 60 minutes.

Detailed explanation-2: -Within different types of tv advertising formats there are various subcategories based on the advertising techniques used in the commercial. Testimonial style commercials, performance proof commercials, testimonial style commercials, and comparison commercials are among the most popular ones.

Detailed explanation-3: -Infomercials are a form of video advertising that lasts for a long period of time, usually from 30 minutes to an hour. They provide an in-depth demonstration of a product and urge the viewer through a call to action to buy the product.

Detailed explanation-4: -Standalone shorter commercials, 30 to 120 seconds in length with a call to action, are erroneously called infomercials; when used as an independently produced commercial, they are generally known as DRTV spots or short-form DRTV. Infomercial sponsors often also use shorter spots during regular programming.
