Yes, it's probably coz you don't have Kindle.
I have Mac but I also have Kindle(s). I never open Kindle for Mac unless it opens on its own when I am viewing files I already have.
Kindle owners have option of transferring book/sample to computer when buying or the already bought ones (bought ones from Manage Your Kindle page).
So, I just click on transfer, it ends up in my Download folder, I click on Calibre add book, chose .azw book from download folder (and it nearly always is titled like the title of the book, no ASIN numbers) and that's it. Few seconds.
On the other hand, as other users have suggested, you probably could create alias of My Kindle Content folder and just add from that folder with files sorted according to date added. That should also be few seconds.
