The minute Google took open street map data hacker news would explode with submissions chastising google for taking without contributing back.

No-one said they should take the data and not contribute back anything. Except OSM in their license of course, http://www.openstreetmap.org/copyright (well it's attribution anyway).

Either a bit a fraction of a percent of a days profit or some data for OSM, sure either would be most acceptable.
