John,
You are confusing a private JRE installation with the public JRE installation (yes, there is such a thing). The public JRE is found in java/jre8. The private JRE is found in java/jdk1.8.0_20/jre.
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/jdk-8-readme-2095712.html#redistribution gives you permission to redistribute the JRE directory that ships inside each JDK installation. If you dig into jre/bin/server you will find jvm.dll.
As far as I know, creating and redistributing a private JRE should be very easy to do. Plenty of organizations do it and it works well.

afaik, Sun/Oracle is /the/ Java for Windows, and AFAIK, it does NOT
allow redistribution, Oracle wants you to register each usage.
also as far as I know, java on 64bit windows defaults to only installing
a 32 bit java, since thats what most browsers use.
hmmm, for extra fun, the JRE 7 I have on my win8 box here, I'm not even
SEEING the server/jni libraries?!?
