whats the difference?

The difference is that in order to advertise on Travel Channel and other US channels, they have to adhere to the standards set by Ashcroft. He forced the travel channel to pull all offshore gambling sites and delayed WPT tourney at aruba b/c Ultimate Bet sponsored it and plastered their logo all over the show.

So to get around it, they setup partypoker.net which only allows play money hoping people would stumble onto partypoker.com.

the fact that i can not redownload is beacause?

If I were designing PartyPoker's sister software (partypoker.net), I can easily make it so you cannot re-download the software if you already had it before. This forces you to think that maybe you went to the wrong site and maybe try PartyPoker.com. At least now they'll have a chance at making real money instead of just providing free software.
