Doesn't matter. If I "Get Dropbox link" a folder - any folder in my Dropbox account - then open that link on my GF's laptop, I get a list of files in that folder, with the same download\"Save to my Dropbox" button. The only difference is, when I share a
folder the download option changes from "Direct Download" to "Download as a Zip", which would be the preferred behavior for such an action.
EDIT: Try it yourself:

It should be a folder of pictures of Iclandic actress Heida Reed.
