No. Anything you buy can be downloaded as many times you want as long as it's to a console the game has been activated on.
There are currently 5 activations allowed per game. So you can download it, as well as 4 people on 4 different consoles.
However, let's assume your PS3 dies. The game is linked to your PSN ID(so you can redownload without repurchasing), but if you redownload the game to a new PS3, the game has to be reactivated. If you game shared it to the maximum number, you no longer have access to it.
So by reducing the activations from 5 to 2, it's really only allowing you to have 1 backup activation in case you need to buy a new PS3 or add another one somewhere in the house.
