We would love the ability to share content to a non-plex user with a simple URL, similar to how OneDrive handles share links. This is especially useful for personal media folders like photos and videos. If I could share my wedding album to my mom without her needing to make an account and log in, etc, that would be fantastic. I currently do this with OneDrive, but that means having to copy my media to OneDrive to make it happen. ---

Plex have previously rejected suggestions to publicly share media from servers. That’ll put their service awfully close to file sharing and pirating sites. > [@"Share Movie" Link for People without MyPlex Accounts with optional expiration date](https://forums.plex.tv/t/share-movie-link-for-people-without-myplex-accounts-with-optional-expiration-date/31778/87): > > I’m sorry we have no current plans to add this to roadmap anytime, as Plex is not a file sharing app, and as such am closing this topic so your votes can be returned to vote on something else. ---
