The problem of the classification of the extensions of the Virasoro algebra is discussed. It is shown that all H-reduced \cal Gr-current algebras belong to one of the following basic algebraic structures: local quadratic W-algebras, rational U-algebras, nonlocal V-algebras, nonlocal quadratic WV-algebras and rational nonlocal UV-algebras. The main new features of the quantum V-algebras and their heighest weight representations are demonstrated on the example of the quantum V3(1,1)-algebra.
