▶️ Online Cinemas Overtake Offline Theaters
Anton Volodkin, CEO of the Wink online platform, stated that online cinemas have become a key part of Russia’s creative economy.
According to him, 75–80% of the country’s adult population uses online cinema services (including free, ad-supported content), and the subscription audience exceeds 50 million people.
The platforms are actively producing their own content, releasing up to 150 original projects per year, making them an important driving force in the industry.
In terms of customer base and revenue, online cinemas have already surpassed offline theaters by a factor of two.
