It would take less than a minute per file to see if it contains copyrighted content and you wouldn't have to have a high school degree to do it.

With the money they make they can afford a small team that just does this so the wait is minimal before legit files are approved.
Agreed!
As for the added cost of labor etc they would have to up their prices, but guess what thats business/life......

Fucking criminals living in the grey zone of the law.
