Garry's Mod, Source Content, and other things?

Question

So, I have a friend. My friend wants to install the Half-Life package (Half-Life source, Half-Life 2, Half-Life 2: Episode 1, Counter Strike: Source) on my computer because he says that I can get this awesome game called Garry's Mod 10. 

I've played it before. It's really good.

I'm more than willing to buy Garry's Mod 10 from my own money, but the thing I worry about is the other content. He said I can't have Garry's Mod without the other stuff because it uses content from those games. Since it uses the content from the game I'm borrowing from him, is that illegal? 

We both want to play Garry's Mod online at the same time, too. So if we're both accessing that content, even though only he paid for it, is that bad? 

If it is illegal, I'd have no problem going out and buying my own copy (if I can find one of the packages) I just wanted to make sure.

I'm pretty sure it wouldn't be illegal if you copied the files from those games on to your computer into the right spot of course purely just to use the files for garry's mod and not playing the actual game.
however you DO NOT need ALL of those games on your computer to play the game, you only need one single game that uses the source engine like Half-Life 2 or Counter-Strike: Source.
However it is best to have as many source engine games as possible because this enables you to use more objects (aka props) in game and you wont get so many props that just come up with an error.
Hope i helped a bit.
