Simple answer: no. The tags are part of the file. It's hard to imagine
a copy operation that would strip out the metadata without completely
corrupting the file. That would pretty much require either a misbehaved
tagging program or a tagging program plus user error, both of which are
more common than they should be in an ideal world  ;-)

Glad you got it working, but imho the large majority of users,
including the ordinary Joes, use the product just fine without needing
any knowledge of unix or telnet. Tagging is definitely important if you
want to get the most out of the system, but I'd say the same is true for
any computer-based audio playback, even the "ordinary-Joe-friendly"
iTunes. And many who can't bother with tags get by fine with Browse
Music Folder (some even prefer it).
