Another point is that OS X apps are *NOT* files -- they are "Bundles", which are actually folders disguised as files. If you try to treat the app as a file you are likely to run into problems with transfers like this. You need some kind of archive mechanism to be able to transfer the entire application as a folder, not as a file. That is why something like Stuffit is needed.
