VLE is the favored acronym in the UK while LMS is favored here in the US. Part of this may lie in the UK favored meaning of LMS to refer to a library system. Similarly, we used to call WebCT a CMS for Course Management System until too many confused it with CMS for Content Management System. I think of VLE and LMS as being roughly equivalent.

I knew BB9 wasn't (and shouldn't claim to be) a Web 2.0 system / tool / VLE / LMS / PLN / etc, but hadn't thought any more about it. Big question; do you consider BB an LMS or VLE .. and is there a difference? David. Thank you for putting into words what I’ve been struggling with for some time.
