Some days ago I received a review proposal from PLOS ONE...comments required within 10 days. Is this the standard time they expect for a proper review?

I've a lot of doubts...anyway..here below what I wrote when I decided to decline:

'Well, the paper totally fits in my research field but a review expected within 10 days is not affordable at all, included the fact that I would do it for free while you get money from authors. Your open access business model relies on free work of reviewers. I think it is not fair.'

What is your opinion?
