That's not true when copying files - it's the file system that handles
that, and it doesn't care what sort of file it is. 

Either way, the file system creates a checksum when creating a copy of
a file, and either re-copies or reports if the two don't match. Apart
from damaged tapes and floppies, I've NEVER had a file that wasn't
copied correctly. It would be mayhem... exe files wouldn't run, movies
wouldn't play, archives would open... a copy is a copy.
