By the beginning of 2024, the number of subscribers to the service has increased almost 1.5 times, and income from its work in two years could reach 100 billion rubles, according to experts.
“This amount is 2.5 times higher than the entire revenue from theatrical distribution in Russia. Or the income of all paid channels in the country,” said a representative of the platform.
Experts doubt that growth rates will be maintained given the general slowdown in the dynamics of subscription services in Russia. They also recalled the activity of competitors, mainly represented by MTS.
