The main operation cost for NativeDSD is data storage & traffic. We discovered that NativeDSD had very specific storage and delivery needs and AWS forced us to pay a lot for many features we didn't actually use. A hybrid approach (AWS, Hetzner, Bunny) was the right fit at much lower costs.

• The newly built NativeDSD platform keeps all it's master data (users, customers, purchases, albums, subscriptions, etc) in it's core platform.
• The platform exposes audio data (with signed urls) and metadata via REST APIs. These API endpoints are used by external systems (Shopify, Desktop catalog app, Streaming brokers) to deliver services to the NativeDSD customers.
• Additionally the platform is responsible for audio data collection delivered via FTP by partner labels and also automated long term backups at scale.

• Cross-Platform Available on macOS, Windows, and Linux. Files are sorted into clean SKU → album → resolution folders, with full catalog search by album, artist, or track.
• Reliable Download Management Downloads queue automatically with pause support. Network interruptions are detected and resumed, with bulk "Resume All" and "Retry All Failed" actions.
• Multi-Format Downloads Download all your purchased DSD, FLAC, and WAV music. Choose quality per album, skip individual tracks, and optionally include artwork and booklets.
