The USB port and the ethernet port on the V+ are disabled. The only method of getting programmes from the V+ is via the various TV outputs.

Why do Virgin advertise the USB port as being on the box.If it is of no use? Unless its just a wind up -we have it but you cant use it. Very strange.

You can't directly but if you got a capture device like this, then you could transfer the recordings to your computer in real time and then put them on a flash drive :)

Even the Ethernet is disabled so it cannot be used either.

They are there by default from the manufacturer so if they did not mention them I expect even that would be complained about.

Hmmmm.....really? People complaining about an commission that wouldn't affect their box?, Nothing preventing VM from asterisking those connections that are not currently available?
