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.

This is an obvious exaggeration. It would longer just to consolidate media into Plex libraries.

Wow. Here's a clue
sudo cp /etc/apache2/httpd.conf /etc/apache2/https.conf.bak
sudo vi /etc/apache2/httpd.conf
# hint: learn apache once, use many times
sudo ln -s /Directories/you/want/apache/to/see /Library/WebServer/Documents/
sudo apachectl start
Took me less than 10 minutes.Thanks for the script. I have no interest in learning how it works, though, I just want to watch a darn movie…
Unnecessary step, and if it only takes you 10 seconds, you really have no media to speak of: when it is TB of media, you're fucked.

Not a script, just a few loose commands.
