But if they don't take it down as soon as they are "notified" then they lose the safe harbor protections. I find the DMCA enraging but the law is pretty clear. You incur some liability by not taking down immediately, and no lawyer or business is going to incur liability when they don't have to.

What I wrote is how the law should have been written (IMHO), not how it is. You are correct the law forces them to act as they do.
