There's been an Amazon plugin forever. The interaction between the various metadata source plugins, and what comes from where, is not always obvious.
I still don't think that Calibre reads metadata from Amazon, when fetching metadata from sever, Calibre says "Calibre can find metadata for your books from two locations: Google Books and isbndb.com".

Up to now, calibre can find the following parameters: title, author, tag, publisher, rating, series, published date. I think if calibre reads metadata from Amazon, then some more parameters will also be available, e.g. Number of pages, edition.
