This is truly a case of apples and oranges.
The iPad is the classic paradigm for portable personal music playback, It is a device that stores all the music on the device itself and is therefore limited to the total storage capacity of the device.
Subsonic is designed for streaming from a central music server that has far more storage capacity but plays back to a device that does not need to store the music on the device itself with the exception of a small cache.
The catch with Subsonic is that you do need a reliable data connection between the server and the portable device.
