I think license-key and product-key should be synonyms. There's also software-activation.
I also don't see why the 12 volume-license questions aren't just tagged with license given you can get volume licensing on software and OS.

It really comes down to granularity. license-key and product-key are really the same thing, but software-activation is a process and should stay separate.
volume-license could be grouped into license-key. I am concerned that it might not be discoverable enough and that it might be different enough to warrant its own tag. Usually those looking for volume licensing are IT profestionals who are going to need a very different answer than home users using single licensees.
My vote is to combine license-key and product-key, but leave the other two.

4@Raystafarian I forget the rules for low volume tags, but I think it is a unique topic from license-key. While many volume license users will have a rep or contact they can get help from, I never did when I was managing ours. Plus, reps usually take a while to get back to you. SE sites are to collect important info so it can be easily found and referenced. As SU has more answers professionals need, they will be more likely to ask and answer questions on the site.– TrispedCommented Apr 18, 2016 at 17:27

Fair enough, I'm just disagreeing is all - no downvote. Sometimes volume licensing agreements are unique to an organization. Commented Apr 18, 2016 at 17:28

@Raystafarian I just wanted to make sure my stance was clear, including your rep suggestion. All good. :)– TrispedCommented Apr 18, 2016 at 19:46
