Remarks

Transfer requests are created and configured using the BackgroundTransferRequest class. The BackgroundTransferService is used to submit requests, remove requests from the queue, and retrieve active requests.

Each application can have only five requests queued at a given time. Attempting to add a request after this limit has been reached will throw an exception. It is the responsibility of the application to remove requests from the queue by using the Remove(BackgroundTransferRequest) method after they have completed.
