"I will share with you a secret: in fact there will be one type of account, but will be packages. All current services of current paid account will be included in the package, which all run out and paysite. Plus added a number of services in this package. But also, you can buy all of the services to be alone, without the package, which is now impossible."
Which I think in human is "Paid/plus/basic accounts will eventually be eliminated, but all of the features of paid accounts will be available to purchase either by themselves, or in packages." So (sometime in the future which the guy won't or can't give a date on), they plan to make all of the bonus stuff -- extra userpics, extra scrapbook space, customized comment pages, etc. -- available to all users.
In theory, this might actually be an improvement, if the pricing is sane. You would just pay for the exact features you want -- extra icons, for instance -- and not the ones you don't.

Just checked the Beta post- as usual the tester's pleads for not allowing that idea to ever see the light were ignored. I know, shocking.

I can't read Russian so I don't know if this guy is serious about the paid accounts.
