Something has to be running to do the download!

Note that you can use the Calibre command line tools to download news and then use your systems scheduler to run these at a specified time without loading the main Calibre program. Details on how to do this are in the User Guide, but it does require a little knowledge on how to set up this type of operation. Doing this does, however, mean that you need to leave the PC concerned switched and running, so there may not be much advantage over simply leaving Calibre loaded and running in the background.
