Tails on Virtual Machine vs. USB/DVD

Is it just as safe to use Tails and do your business on VirtualBox as a USB/DVD? I was unable to get it to work on my DVD 'cause if shitty Windows 8, it would always get stuck at the "Loading, please wait..." part, and I don't have a USB with it anymore. I'm hoping that it's fine to use it on VirtualBox

Yes, Windows 8 is shitty. Change you BIOS setting to legacy mode to run TAILS.

Running from a VM means you're susceptible to MITM attacks. Theoretically, the NSA could hack into your VM provider and install a keylogger etc and see everything you do. But that's pretty unlikely to happen but if you're going to want to be completely water tight then it's best to run from removable media.
