Publishing products videos to attract potential customers is not dropshipping, it is called marketing. Dropshipping means you sell from your store or webpage and another company will fulfil the order. You sell your product, collect money and ask your supplier to ship the product. This is dropshipping . How do you think this will happen on youtube. Can you directly collect payment on youtube, do you get a dedicated shop page on youtube? If you are a big creator, you sure can link your store but that's different matter

A Youtuber could buy a product for himself for video demonstration @Mika. This doesn't mean that he owns the product and when sales arrive he places orders on the other company and sets up his margin. It is easy. But it requires a lot of work.
