Video cassette tape query.

Video Asylum

TVs, VCRs, DVD players, Home Theater systems and more.

Why is it that the leader tape on a video cassette is very short, i.e. you can never fully erase that tiny bit at the begining of the tape of a previous recording.
I always spin the tape on a little before recording to avoid this. If the leader tape was longer it would allow the begining of the formulated tape to pass over the erase head. Whats your opinion. Thanks.
