Can I download purchased games to another PS3

[sportzmad]

Hi

Is there anyway I can download games I have bought to another PS3.

My brother has just got an 80gb one and I thought he could login as me and then download them as I think you get 3 downloads allowed per purchase.

Tried it recently on a mate PS3 and it wouldn't let me sign in as he was already registered as a user on his PS3, we logged off and tried to sign back in but no joy.

Use the search function next time

Most downloaded games can be downloaded to up to 5 different consoles. The account which purchased the game needs to be left on each machine though.
What you need to do is create a new user altogether and sign in with your account on that user. Then go to the Store and "View Downloads" which is in the top right.

but can that downloaded game / DLC then be used by the original user account / owner of the PS3?
