Subsonic music streaming app


Do any of you use Subsonic to stream your music from your PC to your iPhone/Pod/Pad? I'm thinking about trying it--$5 for the app and a free 30 day trial for the download ($30 "donation" to keep using it after that). I'm thinking I'll have a sort of DIY Squeezebox, minus the hi res capapbility. If anyone is using it . . .

1) How does it sound playing lossless files?
2) Are there any set up adjustments that will improve audio quality?
3) Any quirks or drawbacks?

FYI, I'll be streaming my music library from my laptop to my iPhone which is docked to a Pure i-20 which sends the pure digital stream to my W4S Dac-1.

Thanks for any guidance!

I used it for a while and if you search the archives I think I started a thread about it.....but...it's quirky and hard to set up. I now use an app called Audio Galaxy which is much more user friendly. They both tans-code lossless to mp3 and sound about the same. I use it to stream from my home server to a Droid X (there is also a iphone version)with Westone 3 earbuds. It's my dog walking HiFi. Nice to be able to access 30k songs without using any storage space on the SD card!
Forgot to add...Audiogalaxy is also free and it streams via 3G/4G so you do not need a wireless connection. Subsonic will do that also but not nearly as error free.
Thanks Richard. I fiddled with Subsonic last night, but couldn't get it to stream to the iPhone. It does indeed seem quirky--will check out Audiogalaxy.
I discovered SqueezePlayer the other week. You will need the SqueezeBox server on your laptop and a controlling app like SqueezeCommander. I think you might be able to use the built-in website of the server from the browser but the SqueezeCommander will be easier to use. It will basically turn your "i" device into a Squeezebox Touch. I think for both apps it might cost you $10-$15. If you decide to install the server software on a computer, you can stream remotely over 3/4G using the SqueezePlayer. I haven't tried it yet, but the developer has a very thorough "HowTo" on his site.

If I would have discovered SqueezePlayer sooner, I may have bought another tablet instead of buying SB Radios.
Sorry didn't answer the original post. No I haven't tried Subsonic. Reason why I recommended SqueezePlayer because Subsonic sounded similar in functionality.
