A corrupt file will be corrupt after you burned it. You are simply copying a corrupt file to another drive.

What are all the protection barriers that prevent files from being corrupted because they are in bad sectors and badblocks? when a file is recorded in a good sector of the HDD, that sector becomes bad, corrupting the zip file and exe that will be burned to DVD?
