B1/B2 vs Visa Waiver Programme (ESTA)

Quite a general question here! What are some of the reasons that a U.K. citizen might be more suited to a B visa over the VWP?

As far as I can tell the requirements of each are relatively similar. The difference being that the B visa allows you stay for 6 months rather than 3.

Is it possible for a tourist to justify applying for a B visa over the VWP? I have heard that it can be a risky thing to do since having a denied visa makes you ineligible for the VWP. Does anyone have any experience of this?

Has anyone else received this message? All of our documents say "Approved" on NVC. Does this mean we have to find another sponsor? Can we show the consular officer our ...
