What DVD to use to install Windows 8 using BootCamp Assistant?

[Vicero]

Hey,

I'm a little confused as to what CD/DVD I'm supposed to use to install Windows 8 on my MBA using Boot Camp Assistant.

From my understanding, an OEM DVD is required, not the "Microsoft Windows 8 Pro - Upgrade" CD. When I buy the OEM, it will come with a 'product key.' Could someone confirm this is correct?

yes, if you buy Windows 8 with BOX, the product license key will be included at the Box, but if you buy Windows 8 ISO file (download version) from Microsoft store, the product key will be emailed to your email or appear in your Microsoft Store account,

you can use any DVD to installing Windows 8 into your MBP, simply burn ISO files to DVD,

the Windows 8 ISO file size will be not enough in CD.
