How did people copy something from a VHS/cassette tape since they’re physical..?

583 views

For example in the past, how would movies or TV shows get copied on to millions of VHS tapes for people to watch at home? Do they all get copied from the very Original tape and how did they make sure that the original wasn’t damaged or something…?

You may find [this](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EyGYp9UzXbg) useful. It’s for audio tapes but it’s similar for VHS.

TL;DR: They’re recorded to multiple tapes simultaneously onto HUGE reels at faster than normal speed and then chopped up.
