Okay but what does a pirate practically need?

A dongle? (what's that and how much does it cost, estimate?)

Empty blu-rays to burn games on?

Or just hardware space? (but how do they get the game from the internet to the PS3 in that case)

And no I don't plan to hack, I just want to get a picture of how cumbersome it is, and hopefully the process is still cumbersome.

With the latest existing hack...all you need is hard drive space. If you want to back up your own games, you need a bluray reader obviously.

And how do the games end up on the harddrive?

FTP server I guess, external HDD, USB flash drive or by connecting the internal PS3 2,5" HDD to your PC.

Not sure if all these things work, but at least the last 3 methods shouldn't even need any kind of homebrew applications. (thus being legal I guess)

For the first method I'm not describing how it works or where you get it from (as I don't know it myself) :)
