The big question now is whether this hole can be patched. Presumably, instead of taking the time to deliver the upgrade properly, Microsoft pushed it out the door as quickly as possible - and this is the result. The massive irony, of course, is that Microsoft originally intended to strip Media Center from Windows 8 Pro - and then, in the face of consumer backlash, decided to offer it as a free upgrade until January 31 2013. To do this, just visit System and click “Get more features with a new edition of Windows” (pictured above), insert your key, and voilà. This is where the bug seems to be: With a KMS-activated copy of Windows 8 (which you can perform with any license key, valid or otherwise), Windows 8 will - for some reason - become fully, legitimately activated when you apply your free Media Center Pack key.
