• Programs that have been recorded from any broadcast source (including, but not restricted to, movies, television shows, news programs, and satellite programs).

Duplication Prices

To Standard VHS or DVD (NTSC):
1st copy $7.50
Additional copies $5.00

To International VHS (PAL/SECAM):
All copies $7.50

Note: If you wish to merge several tapes onto one, you will be billed the 1st copy price for each original. For example, if you bring in four 30-minute tapes, and want us to copy them all onto one 120-minute tape, the charge will be $30. Additional copies, if made at the same time, will then cost $5 a piece.

All prices include tapes or discs. If you wish to provide your own unopened media, you may, but it will not affect the price of the duplication.
