Video duplication and video in general aren’t dead, yet. Musicians, small business managers, and even grandmothers are still using videotape duplication to educate customers and to share movies of family gatherings. Video duplication of corporate events, training and how-to videos, concerts, weddings, graduations, family reunions and the like is still popular. Copy video-to-video or video-to-DVD or any combination of formats, such as VHS, S-VHS, DVD, Betamax, 8MM, Digital 8, mini DV and others.

Video is convenient and economical, so know the following about it when you need video duplication:
  1. Video tape duplication services use high quality blank tapes.
  2. Call the company or read instructions online to learn how to submit your videos for duplication.
  3. Videotape duplication is fast, depending on the number of orders before you; it's usually done within days or a week.

Action Steps
The best contacts and resources to help you get it done

For the home enthusiast, use video tape duplication service for family keepsakes.


Video duplication businesses can produce a video memory of a graduation or family gathering by combining video or still pictures onto a video or DVD. This can be set to beautiful, soothing music to create a treasured family memento. Video services can make numerous copies to send to all your aunts and uncles, grandparents and family friends. Typical video duplication service includes amenities such as high quality blank tapes, printed labels, cardboard sleeves for tapes and quality control.

I recommend: For video duplication services, visit We Make Tapes & Discs, Action Video Service and Video Transfer.

Use video duplication equipment to copy training videos and corporate announcements.


Industrial video duplication requires more copies, higher quality, and faster production times than personal videos. Need to send 100 promotional videos to your clients, instructional videos to managers, policy announcements to team leaders, or studio quality music and entertainment? Select a video tape duplication service. Video is often cheaper than DVD duplication, and most conference rooms and training facilities still supply video tape players. Video duplication companies carry high-end video tape duplication equipment that can produce high-quality copies quickly and economically.

I recommend: For video duplication businesses, visit High-Tech Productions and Video Production House. MF DIGITAL makes digital video duplications.

Consider a VHS duplication business to earn extra income.


Video duplication can be a lucrative home-based business. Videotape isn't dead; millions of people still use it and have hundreds of homemade videos still hanging around. Since many professional duplication companies are focused on DVD, CD, and video-to-DVD transfers, video duplication is seen as a dying business. However, this is a chance for an entrepreneur to whisk in and fill a much-needed gap. Before starting a video duplication business, gather information on the video tape duplication systems you'll need, where to buy them, where to get blank tapes, where to advertise for clients and how to set up a business.

I recommend: Before starting a video cassette duplication business, check out Video University and Sign Video for lessons and tips.
