The problem with background content loading is that you never know if it's content the user is ever going to look at. It would be pretty easy to install a few apps to try out that you never wind up looking at again, and then your device spends a lot of time and battery loading the content overnight, and you wonder why your battery is dying even though you're not using it much.
