Sony’s Phil Harrison revealed in an interview with Game Informer that the next PS3 firmware Firmware upgrade 1.6 will feature background downloading.

PS3 will use its massive multitasking power to let you do other “things” while it downloads files in the background.

Snippet of a Game Informer interview with Harrison:

GI: …You mentioned today, background downloads. Will that be part of it, and what are some of the other things that you have planned for that?

Harrison: The only thing I can talk about is that background downloading will be part of the 1.6 upgrade. There’s a bunch of other stuff, but Kawanishi-san would kill me if I was to reveal all of the details.
