Why convert WEBM files to an iPad-compatible format?

Because iPads may not support WEBM natively, converting ensures the video plays correctly on these devices.

Will converting WEBM to another format affect video quality?

Yes, since WEBM uses lossy codecs, re-encoding to another lossy format can cause some loss of quality.

Can all WEBM features like subtitles transfer during conversion?

Not always; features like embedded subtitles and multiple tracks may not transfer cleanly without additional processing.
