None of the penalties are jail time and microenterprises (<10 employees) are exempt. There’s also a disproportionate burden clause that would also probably exempt you.

Are you making more than 2 million EUR in profit?

And I also don't see anything related to music, the closes I can see is "audio-visual media services such as television broadcast"

What are you on about? This is target against big cooperation, so a blind person can buy a bus ticket online.

I wrote the website my music is hosted on (an audio visual media service) using Godot. How am I supposed to make that accessible?

But I didn't know about the limits, which would make it okay in my case.

This is also FUD. Please stop it. The law is for disabled people who need to use important tools online. It is not about some guy who tries to sell his music.

Thanks for the clarifications, I hope you are right and this won't be abused.

I recall a website pushing pictures into the "license free" section of google images and then suing other websites reusing them for copyright infringement.
