There are three factors that are working against piracy on the PS3 at the moment ...
Blu-Ray discs and burners are amazingly expensive at the moment, and the cost between stealing a PS3 game and buying a game not worth the effort.
The PS3 is not popular enough (at the moment), and the platform is already fairly open, which means that pirates and hobbyists have little incentive to cract the platform to enable booting from the hard-drive (or an attached device).
25GB is an inconvenient size for most people to download a large quantity of games; certainly, with a good internet connection it isn't a problem, but the occasional fake file is annoying enough to frustrate even the most dedicated geek.
