Do you work with any other programming languages? Soundcloud has a very good api which can provide you with useful info including a url to stream specific tracks, etc. but it's pretty advanced and you'd have to learn to use their authentication system. docs are here: http://developers.soundcloud.com/docs#errors
Alternatively, it might help to know that if a soundcloud track allows downloading you can always add '/download' to the end of the url and get download an audio file (in the format it was uploaded in).

Hey pd-people, I'm just wondering if any of you ever tried loading an audio file hosted by soundcloud into a PD patch.I'm thinking about something like [openpanel] + [soundfiler] but sourcing the audio data from a soundcloud account.
