Kinopoisk belongs to Yandex, which acquired it in 2013 for $ 80 million and spent several years restarting the project, but under pressure from users, it returned the portal to the old version (a library about cinema with news, ratings and information about premieres).
In 2015, an online cinema was launched on the basis of Kinopoisk. According to a study by Deloitte, Kinopoisk ranks second with 34% of the most popular video services in Russia. The ivi cinema became the leader in subscription (42%), Okko is the third (29%). At the same time, 38% of Moscow residents signed up for the Yandex online cinema.
