It's technically viable, using a distributed hash table for example. But I'm not aware of any solution that does it.
I don't think metadata tracking would work with a p2p solution. Why would I want potentially terabytes of metadata for media I will never consume.
In my opinion, musicbrainz is already doing what you want with the big benefit of not being forced to store a full copy of it. If there is metadata missing from musicbrainz, then maybe you can help the community by trying to track it down and then add/update those values in the db.
