Most audio and visual recording tapes, such as those that are found in video cassettes and audio tapes, are not generally toxic. All that the tape contains is a plastic/polymer embedded with a metallic substance that aligns with magnetic fields and stays that way after the magnetic field has passed. The reading device can interpret this alignment of particles and translate it into an audio/visual output signal. This is also why if you run a magnet over the tape, it will be degaussed (erased).
