As an audio reviewer
As an audio reviewer, Native DSD Music offers one of the very best choice of good music available in different formats, especially DSD but not only. Always very helpful to mention what was the original recording format and this site exhibits plenty of pure native DSD files as also DXD or 24 bit 96 kHz files.
And for classical music lovers like me, it’s definitely the place to be on internet to download the best music.

Thank you so much for this wonderful review! We're delighted that you appreciate our catalog and the care we take in presenting the original recording formats for each album.

Thank you for choosing Native DSD Music!
repackaging of music from DSD256 to…
Repackaging DSD256 into DSD512 does not make it play better — with DSD, the noise is part of the file, and no cleanup of the DSD256 noise is done before conversion. The DSD256 files I purchased carried DSD64 noise starting at 24 kHz, which made the sound diffused on my high-resolution system. Nothing on the product page warned about this. To their credit, NativeDSD confirmed my measurements, refunded my purchase, and promised clearer disclosure. Check the original recording format before paying for a higher rate.

Reply from NativeDSD Music
You're right about the files, and we'd rather say so here than argue the point.
Our Higher Rates editions are conversions, not remasters. We take the label's edited master and change the rate without applying corrective filtering, because we treat filtering as the label's decision rather than ours. Where that master is DSD64, its noise profile stays in the higher-rate edition. That is deliberate, but it appeared nowhere on our site, so there was no way for a buyer to know. That part is our failure.
We've followed up with you directly by email to put it right. We're also rewriting the product pages to state the conversion path for every edition.
Excellent selection of music
Excellent selection of music. The binaural albums, in particular, are rare gems.
Excellent audio quality.
The website, interface, navigation, and download application are all intuitive, user-friendly, and very well designed.
The only downside: WEBSITE NAVIGATION IS EXTREMELY SLOW.

My first foray into "proper" DSD
My first foray into "proper" DSD, as opposed to up-sampling from PCM. Navigating the NativeDSD site can be a bit daunting when you don't really know what you're looking for, but I found something, "Protostar", by the Black Hole Boogie Band, who I'd never heard of, that I thought might suit my taste.
Initially, I chose NOT to install the NativeDSD download app, but regretted it when my download failed after 15 minutes with a "network error". Having installed the app, I was able to download my files without further issue; lesson learned.
At this point, I'm undecided whether pure DSD is superior to the up-sampled variety, or hi-res PCM, but I know where I can come if I want to explore more.

Good products at a fair price, complicated codes and bundle discounts
Good products at a fair price. The only minus is discount codes and bundle discounts --- Fin AI explained much of it to me, but it is way to complicated for a first time customer. I zero-ed out
on both --- good thing it was not a deal breaker.
