It only took a few days, but thanks to the Playstation 3’s ability to run Linux, users have already found a way to rip entire Blu-ray movies onto their PS3 hard drive.

The fault lies with those committing the crime as the majority of those who download Terra Soft’s Yellow Dog Linux v5.0 are likely doing so legitimately.

Multiple sites, including PVRWire, are reporting on gamers illegally copying movies to the PS3 hard drive. Once the huge movie file is on the hard drive, its only a matter of time before the hacking community figures out how to burn them.
