It's not all that tough, making "black-market" copies of tapes. It's the
same way you make a "legit" copy: run two VCR's, one PLAYing the tape,
the other RECORDing onto a blank. Hook up the cables so they talk to one
another, and BAM! Copied tapes.  The copy tends to lose some quality,
and at about the fourth generation (copy of a copy of a copy of a copy)
it's unmistakable.						-- Allan Pratt
