Downloads are also absurdly slow on the Xbox app compared to steam. Downloading multiple times as much doesn't help either.

I always noticed that on the PS4 as well, and never really tried to delve into why, or why it would go significantly faster (but nowhere near as fast as my PC) if the system was in rest mode, as opposed to just sitting watching the download happen on screen.

Yeah Steam has pretty good server infrastructure while Sony’s sucks ass, and yet Sony is the one who charges for most other online features lmao

I get that. I just don't get why sleep mode doubles the download speed on a ps4.
