Take a look at this page under the section titled "Serving media files" http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/modpython/ That way you can also serve your media files from your same Apache instance. Personally I've been using Lighttpd with FastCGI and it has been working great. In fact Lighttpd only redirect the traffic to the Django FastCGI instance, it doesn't have to load any python code itself so it is very light-weight and very good for serving media files.
