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!

Have a look at eLyric. It will play FLAC directly (no transcoding/quality loss to MP3). I got it because I got the PS Audio PerfectWave DAC & Bridge and eLyric is a PS Audio product and the recommended controller for the PW DAC. I use eLyric as a controller, but it also works as a player. I have no experience with any of the apps previously mentioned in this thread, but eLyric is the best of all the controller/renderer apps that I have tried on Andriod and iPod/iPad.
