Illegal to do and I don't think the mods like it being discussed.

The movies that I plan to download are the ones my friend uploads which arent copyrighted so still nothing illegal there.

I am only looking for a yes or no answer.....its hardly that hard to give me.

if its blu ray quality, it could be 30 gigs in size
most likely your monthly download allowance
hardly worth it

well, your friend could encode the movie into another format i think mkv is the dominant hd format now which would make it easier to upload/download , the ps3 cant play these though. other forms of encoding would probably sacrifice quality.
The only proper way would be for your friend to upload an iso of his movie for you to download and burn to a blu ray yourself. Thats probably possible by now but im not sure how available bluray burners are or if it would even work on the ps3.
So basically short answer: No, not really.
