You've got replies on most stuff, so I'll just skip over those and add
my own comments to some things.

This should not be a relationship like we currently have relationships.
This is an entirely subjective piece of information and some people will
consider two artists similar while others will not. There are already
projects (though I forget which, sorry) that group/cluster entities
based on relationships (which IIRC wasn't completely off), so it is
possible to do something like it with the data in MB already. There's
also AcousticBrainz which can be used to cluster entities based on the
acoustic properties of their recordings. If we get scrobbling hooked in
to our end at some point, that'd obviously be another usable source for
this, but it isn't required to get something like this going.

Google does pay at least some of their data sources. I know, for one,
that Google is MetaBrainz' biggest "customer" by far (in terms of how
much money they put in the project).
