- Can be used as a standalone client or embedded as a library in other applications
- Automatically refreshes authorization token if expired during download
- Can save downloaded zones as named by
Content-Dispositionor URL name - Can compare local and remote file size and modification time to skip redownloading unchanged zones
- Can download multiple zones in parallel
- Docker image available
