They did, they mentioned Plex.

Thanks, missed that, but it drives my point home: with Apache2 behind Web Sharing, Plex, and all software that claims to be a media server, is entirely superfluous and just adds unnecessary work for the user.

It took me a maximum of 5 minutes to download, install, and set up Plex and use it as my home media server.

It would take me hours to figure out how to do all that with Apache.

Have you actually used Plex? It doesn't just serve up directory listings of media files and stream them. It's also not hard to set up.
