Q.  Why doesn't videotape last? A.  Because videotape is composed of oxide particles that record the image.   These are bound to the base of the tape.  The binder material that holds these components together deteriorates over time and becomes sticky.  The oxide particles can separate from the base making replay poor if not impossible.  In addition to chemical breakdown the tape can become damaged by a number of causes including mildew, magnetic fields, warping, cracking, and creasing over time.  See "Glossary of Terms" under Links.                                Q.  My question is not listed here.
