It is a bit weird that this isn't 'builtin', but if you want to hook up NSURL stuff with NSOperation's it looks like you have to reuse the runloop in the main thread and make the operation a 'concurrent' one ('concurrent' to the queue).

Though in your case - if it's just about plain downloads, with no subsequent, dependent, operations hooked up - I'm not sure what you would gain with using NSOperation.
