Technically that means you do not have to enter in a CD Key.
I use the same thing on my custom made Windows 98/98-SE Installer Discs.
Yup, I happen to have a Windows ME disk that uses the msbatch.inf file with a product key. Iirc when reaching the "enter key" page in the setup process, it would have pre-entered that product key and you would be required to only click the "next" button. The ME media btw is a "select" disk, not an MSDN disk.

Apparently the disk should look like this
{ Edit: Woops, already been mentioned the disk should be silver. Must be one of those 4am things 😁 }

Yes, but as Windows 95 is really old, apparently MS doesn't care about it anymore. And why should they. Btw, the disk should officially be sold with a license. Still odd it doesn't use a product key. I thought all official non-beta Windows 95 media required a (very easy to guess) product key?
And btw, some people like collecting Windows Media...like me 😁
I got a small but nice collection of Windows media that I collected over the years, mainly from gifted disks and some lucky local buys (like the select Windows ME disk).
