Sony MD Clip Editor. The first verion only supported reading MDClip, it could not write. Fairly soon after launch Sony offered V2 that allowed both reading and writing MDClip art. The user had to send in a registration card and request it. Archive.org has the purple (v1.0J) disc here

The purple disc is V1.0J and the Blue disc is V2.0J.

Some links discussing it with some screenshots and info:
