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.
That was actually done in napster case,which is why i wonder why now similar services are protected with dmca.
