For a little while now, yes.

IMDb, historically known as the Internet Movie Database,[2] is an online database of information related to films, ... IMDb began as a fan-operated movie database on the Usenet group "rec.arts.movies" in 1990, and moved to the Web in 1993. Since 1998, it has been owned and operated by IMDb.com, Inc., ** a subsidiary of Amazon. **

Yeah, and this thread made me look up who runs themoviedb.com. It's the parent company of TiVo so no small business either. But for now, I see it as somewhat less shitty than IMDB still.
