Thank you Alex Benzer but can you clarify this please?

(1) Will listening time be converted to Member Reading Time with usual current earnings calculations?

(2) Will the "one-time engagement bonus" be additional to per-story Earnings — i.e. be additional to earnings paid upon Member Reading Time? (I understand that the listening time will be aggregated over the listening times per month. That is, Member Listening Time, for calculating the Bonus is based upon TOTAL listening time of all the writer’s stories that month by all the paying members who listen).

OR will the Member Listening Time earnings REPLACE Member Reading Time? (If so, then the MLT “bonus amount” per story listened to, before being added up or aggregated, should be equal to the earnings per story calculated under the MRT scheme).

(3) Is there a minimum Member Listening Time to receive a one-time engagement bonus per month?

Many thanks for answering these questions!
