you just tape over it. you do this by putting that VHS tape in and when a show or a commercial you want to watch comes on you just click on REC and it should erase the previous video on that that tape. Video tapes and most all types of magnetic media can be erased by exposing them to an AC field which is usually generated by hat's called, a `bulk eraser'. What it is, is a transformer with a switch, enclosed in some type of housing for convenience of use. If you look in the internet or Ebay, chances are that you can still find one, although they're not in a lot of demand today. The should be relatively inexpensive.

Where is the erase protection tab on VHS tape?

The erase protection tab on a VHS tape is located on the top edge of the cassette. It is a small, plastic tab that can be removed or covered to prevent the tape from being recorded over. If the tab is removed, it typically allows the tape to be recorded on; if it's still in place, the tape is protected from accidental erasure. Some tapes have a slot for a small piece of tape or a sticker that can be used to cover the hole if the tab has been removed.

How do you erase a cassette tape?

The easiest way to do this is to record over it, but there will still be residual audio (or video if a VT) from the previous recording. If you wish to erase a confidential recording, I would recommend a Tape Degausser. This emits a rapidly alternating electromagnetic field which demagnetised the tape and thus erases it, in much the same way the degauss feature works to demagnetise components in CRT monitors. However, Tape Degaussers can be very expensive. If it's important it be erased, with no trace and minimal cost - throw it on the fire, but you'll be unable to re use it afterwards.
