Anyone can listen to audio on Minds. Audio creation is for Minds+ and Pro members because this literally costs an insane amount of money to run. So does video. If people don't become members we cannot keep the features. Minds+ and Pro are what keeps Minds alive and this is a major addition to it to make it worth it. You also get the value of your membership in free ad credits and more bonus features coming soon. Your help keeping the lights on is deeply appreciated. I will be engaging Minds members heavily. minds.com/upgrade
