It is stupid to rar a file or compress a file that is already
compressed. e.g. a jpg file or an mpg file and yes it will leave bits
behind no matter what your CRC file says as these files are usually too
small to develop many errors.
You're wasting time, processing power, energy, etc... compressing and
decompressing files already compressed and usually you'll end up with
files larger than what you were trying to compress.
