I can't say either way, but they mention the average person saves even more than they do (90% vs the 60% Amazon saw). This was due to their Oracle license being much cheaper than normal Oracle customers. So if you extrapolate, even if they did get some discount being Amazon, the discount they were getting on Oracle probably makes the savings comparable to if they weren't getting large discounts on each side (regular customers of Amazon/Oracle).
