You can download the game as many times as you want.

Steamworks hardcopies are also downloads, cause the version of the game on the DVD is usually outdated and Steam will need update often even half of the files.

Hint: stop buying hardcopies. They are just dustcatchers and majority of the games needs to be activated on Steam anyways.
