This is Google - it's what they do best.
Yeah, Google would probably quickly start importing data from the PD
OSM into its products. That alone would be enough to cause me to
contribute. I'd love to be able to correct errors that I come
across in Google Maps Navigation (the Android app). To compare such
a thing to rape is really quite appalling. Not to mention
hypocritical, when you consider CloudMade and its obnoxious TOS.
Yahoo have imported OSM data for some while, though I think they take
it as a sort of "payment" for our usage of their hi-res aerial service.
