OK, I sort of ran out of time to upload the full thing.
What I've done is to chop out all of the country parades up until
where Team GB come in.
Then I've transcoded it to a high quality AAC file. The extension is
mp4; in the extremely unlikely event your player doesn't recognise it
try renaming the extension to .m4a.
The resulting file is 66mb. But once again, please don't complain that
you wanted to hear the Zambian athletes being described. Cos it ain't
there!
Here's the link: https://www.box.com/s/0924f389b84f83f0828a
Incidentally, I was wondering where you can get the amazing music from
the industrial and flame lighting sections.
Turns out you can't without buying a whole album. However, I've seen
these links floating around. For the purposes of technical interest
only, I had a look and reckon they might be working.
I couldn't possibly say whether visiting the links would be the right
thing to do, though. But given then a fair few of your tax pounds have
paid for it, I wouldn't blame you if you did!
The tracks are:
