"The company is instead hoping to gain long-term commercial success by landing legitimate licensing and syndication deals with the same entertainment industry giants that consider San Mateo's Napster Inc. public enemy No. 1."
While there is no Mac client yet, Scour does offer an Open Development program with a published Scour Protocal to encourage 3rd party development. There's already a Perl version available.
