Abstract
Systems and methods for optimizing network use for downloading media assets using activity signals for a household or organization. A receiver may monitor an organization for signals indicating activities that are associated with a reduction in use of the network. When such signals are received, a media guidance application may automatically download a media asset during a period of reduced network use.
