For jukeboxes only?

I just pulled a 7" out of some storage I've had for a while. I like to listen to everything I get before it gets moved to my actual collection.

I don't know that I've seen it in the past, but one of them has a disclaimer that it's for jukeboxes only.

Is this a legal or copyright issue, or are there records made for jukebox that could damage a standard needle? I'm not familiar with the latter, but I'd also prefer asking around before risking anything.

I have some Beatles 7” that are colored vinyl and they say the same. I always just assumed it meant they weren’t for resale.

Isn't it just that they have a big hole in the middle?

It wasn't sold to the public

Based on the comments sounds like I'm good, which I sort of expected. Thanks!
