 Then the game would be automatically downloaded(sleep mode download) at launch day.

steam says hi. 

...but it would be a good feature.  well worth copying.  i have hopes sony copies this at some point too.

Can steam download when the system is powered down (sleep mode)? That the main thing about this.

Anyway it'll still be cool though.

well i'm not sure a PC has the exact equivolant of a sleep mode.  but it does do it completely in the background so you get the same effect, on launch day the game is ready and waiting for you without delay.  I know i get annoyed with this on my ps3 sometimes.  It will download things in the background but for big games i have to find something else to do for 30min or more (on launch day) while it downloads ... certainly not ideal for a digital marketplace.
