Scour Founder Rebounds With Red Swoosh

I’m a little skeptical of this whole rebounding thing, especially when the people involved are former dotcommers, so to speak…

Anyway, Red Swoosh, which uses the latest P2P technology for distribution, was co-founded by Travis Kalanick. He is perhaps better known for being part of the team that founded Scour, the Michael Ovitz-backed file-sharing service that the entertainment industry sued out of existence.

“Content owners need to be respected. Being a renegade isn’t a business.” Umm, maybe…

Update: News.com: Red Swoosh has signed GameSpot rival IGN Entertainment, as well as Net video site IFilm.
