Read Only TBS Backup Confirmation

ENV:
- AIX 4.3.3
- Oracle 8.1.7

I have one tablespace which is read only.  Can I just copy the datafiles from a Read Only tablespace for a valid backup?  For the rest of the db, I backup hot or cold. 
 
Is anyone copying Read Only Tablespace datafiles for backups?  I haven't found this method officially supported by Oracle, but have read that is safe to copy Read Only datafiles (makes sense), just wondering if anyone is doing it?
 
Thanks,
Gene
