With KONTAKT, you can sound like a snare drum, a symphony orchestra, or anything in between, from a universe of sampled instruments. It’s a simple sampler when you want it to be, and a deep sonic scripting laboratory when you need something more. The next generation of the world’s favorite sampling platform gives you new instruments and new features under the hood – so you can layer, link, stretch, and shape your sounds any way you can imagine.

the same thing that happens to any of this stuff over time. it gets bloated. problem is you wont be able to use many of the newest lib's that require the use of 8.xx unless you go to 8.xx... if you have no such requirements stay with 6.x.

Can this install over the top of 8.2.1 or should I uninstall first?

Keep v6 and install this: it becomes Kontakt 8.vst3 whereas v6 is just Kontakt.
I had to install, because purchased Desecrator and Lunaris had updates which only worked in 8. It loads a bit faster, but still cumbersome.
Old projects will still find v6 and if so inclined you can update to v8.
