Not a factoid; just personal experience.  I have never heard any 30-
minute ads on radio, so I consider is a non-issue.  Like worrying
about an asteroid hitting the earth in my lifetime (an unlikely event
& a non-issue).

Also:

I tend not to hate commercials.  For me commercials provide FREE
television and FREE radio (not having to pay $13 a month).

That's a positive not a negative.
