State-owned VGTRK operates major networks including Radio Rossii, Mayak, and Vesti FM. The commercial sector features popular stations like Evropa Plus, Russkoye Radio (dedicated to Russian-language music), and Avtoradio. Russian pop (estrada), rock, chanson, and classical music are prominent formats. Due to the country's vast geography, radio remains essential for reaching remote communities in Siberia and the Far East. Internet radio has expanded access significantly, with stations streaming globally to Russian-speaking diaspora communities.
