I am getting metadata from Amazon here. I looked at the configuration for Amazon metadata and country was set to Canada and server to automatic. As an experiment, I first changed the server to Amazon servers and metadata was still downloaded. I then set the country to US and server to Amazon servers and metadata was still downloaded.

As far as I know, the Kindle covers (G) plugin (aka hires plugin) only finds cover images. The book I used for testing (Betty Crocker Lost Recipes isbn:9781328710376) was found on Kobo, Amazon, Google and B&N. I keep the Goodreads and Fantastic Fiction metadata plugins disabled unless no metadata is found using my normal selection of sources.
