If copying requires decoding to analog TV signal and then digitizing this signal for recording then there will be some degradation depending on the quality of the digitizer and of the analog interconnects. Additional degradation will occur if lossy encodings are used -- same effect you get from re-encoding a JPEG as a JPEG.
