Russia could have between 13-15 million mobile TV users by 2013.
The projected figure was given by Anna Zaitseva, an analyst at the Finam Management, and quoted by the Russian cable association AKTR.
She added, however, that much would depend on how quickly administrative decisions are made to allocate the necessary frequencies for mobile TV services.
A report published by ABI Research suggests that there could be up to 500 million mobile TV users worldwide by 2013.
