Using async and await for executing long-running operations such as networking calls has many benefits: your code is much cleaner and easier to maintain, the result is automatically marshalled back to the originating thread so you don’t need to use Dispatcher.BeginInvoke to get back to the UI thread, and exception handling is simpler to implement. Many of the APIs in the Windows Runtime on both Windows 8 and and Windows Phone 8 use this pattern. It’s the future way of programming asynchronous operations.
