As far as I know Microsoft has said you "need" a valid Windows 7 or 8.1 License to get the free upgrade. I haven't seen them say you actually give up that license, or that its consumed in the process. It's been "reported" that that will happen, and that's been repeated here numerous times. Doesn't mean its true though. Some seem to think if something is repeated often enough it must be fact. I'll believe it when I see it.
