There are many infomercials which are somewhat BS, but there are a lot of good products out there as well that use infomercials.
One reason that advertisers use infomercials is that when they ship products directly, it eliminates the need for a distribution system of huge magnitude. Theu just charge you for shipping and handling from a private carrier of the like. Since they are not able to have products in stores, they don't have that aspect of advertising. Commercials would not allow enough time to give all the information to get your hands on their product, thus infomercials are used.
Hah...and although they are corny sometimes(most of the time), they are necessary in the eyes of the producer.
