I love my USB port in my 2017.
It has a thumb drive stick with 115gb of WMA lossless music.
Actually, so do I. In both of my cars.
Better than mucking around with bluetooth off my Samsung phone at 110km/h on the M31. Or failing that, CDs (series 1).
Apart from working out how to have the USB not start playing everytime at The Cure's track named 39 on the Bloodflowers album.

Never had that problem! Mine just resumes playing from where it was when shut down, even if I remove it.

Same as mine. Although out of the 2 cars I own, the SS always remembers the same song I played last. The Calais V and the Director sometimes plays a different song that was played in a previous drive and hen the next start goes back to the song I had in the other drive. SS only does this in a blue moon.

I originally had an old Iphone but find the USB drive much better.

Our SSVR has two last-played memories.
Which one it uses when you start the car appears random, but I have wondered if it's intended to be linked to the key-fob & Holden didn't bother implementing the personal-settings functionality in the SSVR (or maybe in any VF?). Maybe the fact that regardless of which fob you use to start the car at home, the other fob is within 10 metres, maybe confuses a partially-disabled system?
I know other cars will adjust ICE, seats, mirrors, steering-wheel positioning etc according to the fob, so each driver has their own settings linked to their fob.
