Sharing video so it can be previewed but not downloaded?

I was trying to work out if I can share videos through Dropbox so people can preview but not download? Does anyone know if this is possible? I have over 100GB of video uploaded and want to share it...

    Has anyone found a way around this yet so we can share a video - view only - but not download 

    You can't. That's not how the Internet works. If I can view it, it's already on my computer.
