When should we use Downloader

Could anyone explain about when we should use Downloader? As this name is downloader, I understand that we should use it if we want to download something. but I think we shouldn't download each and everything, right? so,

1. What kinda data should we download?

2. If we download something, it will be downloaded into Isoloated Storage, isn't it?  

2. What should we do after downloading? For example: I downloaded the image. and Can I show this downloaded image in Silverlight?

Anything, your XAML, assets, fonts, images, XML data just about anything. The reason for using downloader is simple, using downloader assuers you have all the available files/assets that you require to render your application.

It will be downloaded on client cache. (Temporary memory)

Yes, thats the idea to use downloader isn't?

Can you give me the example for that. I'm not able to find the way to set the image from Stream. Thanks a lot. Cass
