Subject: [PATCH] Refactor script to generate MP3 files

In this commit, I made several improvements to the 'generate_mp3.sh' script:

1. Removed old complete files before processing to ensure a clean slate.
2. Modified the 'create_mp3_files' function to use '>>' instead of '>' when appending text to the complete files.
3. Updated the comments in the script for better clarity.

These changes help maintain a more organized and reliable MP3 generation process. The script now properly appends text to the 'de_complete.txt' and 'es_complete.txt' files, and it removes old complete files before starting the processing.

File Changes:
- Modified 'generate_mp3.sh' (see diff for details)

Note: Please review and test the changes to ensure they meet your requirements.
