Can you provide more details please- is there a brand name and model 
number (and how much did it cost)?

"On the go" (OTG) is the official name for USB peer to peer protocol 
so looking for something of that name is going to get many unrelated 
results. Can it eg transfer files from one USB peripheral to another - 
eg from a camera to a pen drive? Such a capability would be most 
useful to me even though it's not directly what I was trying to do 
with the CD backup.
