I used their POD service when an elementary school I had connection to couldn't purchase the reading materials for the classes due to back-order. The program happens to distribute their materials under a creative commons license and make available a PDF of the books. I was able to upload the materials from the publisher and print several hundred copies of multiple books, but eventually Amazon shut us down.
We already had enough for the term, so we didn't pursue it much more but they ended up refunding all of the money that we'd spent buying the books from ourselves in order to, I guess, avoid being complicit in copyright infringement. They didn't really understand the creative commons license.
I'd guess if it's your gig to pirate books you have to play whack-a-mole with getting your books removed, but small orders probably don't get reviewed so the time scale is going to be long.
