Yes. 

 

Simply put Dropbox is not a content delivery network and should not be relied upon at all. 

 

For example as a free user its limited to 20/gb per rolling 24 hours and 100,000 downloads. It is more for paid users which you can see here. However, if you hit those limits the links will fail and you cannot get around this. They will fail initially for 24 hours and each time get longer.
