Workaround for getting the URL of public SoundCloud streams in Audio fragments #17

In the Audio fragments the official AA audio books for the Basic Text and 12 Steps and 12 Traditions have to be streamed from the official website as they are under copyright. They are using SoundCloud to host the files. It is not straightforward to access the audio as it is embedded as a widget in their webpage. I have done some research into this and there is a way to bypass the SoundCloud authentication and protection and get a URL for the actual .mp3 stream. There is some information on this here https://stackoverflow.com/questions/68732261/soundcloud-get-direct-audio-url.
