scour.com in general

I found Scour after finding out that another system similar was a scam and never paid out. When I signed up to Scour I found out that I'd actually created an account many years ago when it looked different and was very basic. I started to use Scour again and got on with it quite well, but I'm not using it much. What is Scour? Scour is a search engine that collects searches from various places, such as: Google and Yahoo. They are then all put together as one search. What is so good about this then? Well the great bit is getting paid for searching? How much do you get? You get very little and it's not a cash payout. You get ...  Read the complete review

Scour is a money making website that pays you every time that you use their search engine! Their search engine combines google, yahoo, and msn. You can specify which one you prefer to use in the options :D Its great for so many reasons... It pays you one point to search, one point for rating that search (optional but worth doing as it takes about 0.0001 seconds for the extra point) and then 1 more point if you write a comment about that site... A gimme for us dooyoo'ers! In total they will pay you up to 3 points per search and you can repeat this up to 100 times a day. Giving you a maximum daily total of 300 points. Another way you can earn points ...  Read the complete review

Thought I will add my experience to the brief review available for Scour.com: Ac correctly mentioned, the portal shares the money made through searches/clicks etc with the members. Noble ideas, but suspect ethics. Fairness is something that the site does not pride itself for, quite strange for a website in today's scenario. They have recently decided that the manner of payouts should be different for different localities: Members from US, Canada, UK, France, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Poland and Spain get $25 for 6.5K points while people from the "non-preferred" regions like Asia need to work 38 times harder - for them 250,000 points ...  Read the complete review

I am a big fan of online music and like many other music lovers who have a computer use Napster(see my review) ,but since the closure of this service is imminant i looked elsewhere for somewhere to get my music. Ok other people have wrote comments about Scour Exchange ,but that's just part of it. First thing you find when you visit www.scour.com is a moutain of news stories about the latest in media,not just music(like napster) but all types of media from pictures ,video and net radio. The search engine is very good allowing you to do a general search or a more detailed in depth search.If a general search is done, for example the name of ...  Read the complete review

As you may have heard Napster are in the process of a legal battle which may result in them being closed down. The site is not available as I write this review and as a big fan of the service Napster provided I am very upset. I wish them well in their battle against the greed and might of the music industry but thought like minded Napster-philes may be interested in this site. Scour.com is another internet based 'share' facility where you can exchange mp3 music files with other people. I must admit I am a very new user to this service and will be editing this review when I am more au-fait with the site, but first impressions are good. ...  Read the complete review
