otn.oracle.com - archived products; because that's what it is: archived.
Bury it, and go for 9i, release 2, or 10g.

If you *need* 8i, get it from your employer

if you plan for a personal usage, get directly 9i or 10g, forgive 8i.

The only legitimate reason I can think of for 'needing' this version is to
maintain a production environment. In which case you must have a license
and presumably have support.

If you have support, and ask very nicely either of Oracle's Tech Suport
or their Sales reps, they will often help you get a copy of obsolete
software.

If you do not have support, then we return to the validity of the word
'need'.

(And if you really don't care about staying legal anyway .... look
around on EBay, as there are unscrupulous people who will sell the CDs. I
just ran across an auction for the 8i WIndows OTN Tech Track. <sigh>)
