Synchronize Stereos Option

Hello!
I've been wanting this ever since the sims 4 came out. I usually like to place stereos in almost every room when I build a house (especially large ones), but the problem is that sims go to turn on every single one of them, and I end up with this giant mess of multiple sounds and end up having to turn off a lot of them very often.
So why not have an option when clicking on a stereo to "synchronize" it with all the others, so that the same station and song play at exactly the same time across all stereos? It would be like a having a sound system throughout the house that plays the same song, which would be great for parties and other such things.
For instance, when you click on a stereo, it would have a "Synchronize..." button, which would lead to the options "Synchronize this room", "Synchronize this floor", and "Synchronize all" - much like how light settings work when you click on them. I'm not a developer but I feel like maybe this wouldn't be so hard to implement?
Cheers!

I'd also like the ability to add custom music to the DJ booths and not just the radio stations.
I want this for so long. They should improve more this stuff. I want also to have a personalized music folder like in sims 2 and 3 that could work for the DJ booths.
An alternative and perhaps simpler option would be to have it so that any stereos playing the same station are automatically synchronized to each other. So if you have one playing classical, and turn on another to classical, they will automatically be playing the same song at the same time (like a real radio station!). And of course having the option to turn this off if desired.

Edit: I have found a solution, although it is not ideal. If you use the venue speakers, which come as Pop venue speakers, Blues venue speakers etc. all speakers of the same genre type will play in sync. Anytime you want to play another genre you will need to replace the speakers with the speakers of the desired genre. Hope this helps! Hopefully the devs will add a proper solution at some point :)
