I use the PS3 on the rare occasion I watch a movie. Movies can be hired or purchased and downloaded (via the PS Store application on the device) to the inbuilt HDD to be played at your leisure. From memory, movie hires can be stored for a week or two, but will self terminate within 48 hours of starting play.
If you have the movies already, they can also be copied to the internal HDD, played from a flashdrive, external HDD or PC. If there are file compatibility issues, you can run through a media sever on the PC, which will convert the movie as it streams to the PS3. Can be done wirelessly, or via LAN cable.
Costs for rentals range from cheap, to standard ($6.00 ish), and will also odten depend on whether you want HD or SD, with SD being a bit cheaper ususally.
