Hello. With PS4Pro me and my friend could share the games? Like when he buy one i can play it too with my PS4Pro and viseversa. Can you do the same with PS5. So if he does not buy PS5 and i buy it we could share the games from his PS4Pro to my PS5 or if he buys PS5 and we have PS5 booth so we could we share the games we buy digital of course?? Does Ps5 play games of PS4 like God of War - Spiderman - Days gone and all of the exclusive PS4 games? Thanks in advance?

i think ps5 to ps5 should work, but not ps5 to ps4.
If one of you buys PS5, and one of you buys PS5 Digital Edition, you can theretically do it, but I don't think its going to be viable. SSD's are now quicker to load games, yes, but they're gonna start checking if you own the actual download at this point. Microsoft is already doing it with their consoles. We don't know a whole lot about the PS5 and Xbox Series of consoles when it regards DRM. Let me put it this way, Activision hides DRM, but checks your user profile upon loading a game like Call of Duty: Modern Warfare. The good news is if your game is cross-play enabled like some games are. Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War is promising cross-play, cross-generation play at launch. Meaning if your friend is on PS4, or PS5 via Backwards Compatibility, then both of you can play no matter the console. If I was both of you, I'd look at BC, Cross Play, Cross Gen games.
Spiderman for example has multiple ways to play; the original Spiderman/GOTY Edition is BC. Already tested, and shown. However, Spiderman: Miles Morales is coming to BOTH PS4 and PS5, the PS5 version has Remastered, AND the Miles Morales expansion (obviously). So, both of you can experience the same games at the same time, at your own pace.
The next 2-4 years, PS4 will have a lot of life left before they start focusing entirely on PS5 development. So, both of you can still play together regardless of whether you have PS5 or not. You can still be on PS4 and/or PS4 via PS5 BC.
