Extending the jukebox range or making it play in a whole region is not possible with the current way its implemented.
The jukeboxes only work if the chunk containing the jukebox block is loaded client side.
That limits the range to the server side client chunk load distance. (Do not confuse with client side render distance)

Making it play over a whole region would require me to remove the current jukebox system entirely and make it completely region based.

I kinda made a workaround for that years ago when I set multiple jukeboxes "broadcasting" the same stream if all of the jukeboxes were placed by the same player.
I haven't tested that in a while but I expect it to be still working.

You would simply place jukeboxes all around your region. Then go and start the same stream/song playing on them.
It only works with songs in repeat or radio streams tho

What about selecting what stream you are listening to, perhaps applicable via adding a list of streams that is reloadable?

Well, I was wondering if a "choose jukebox" feature could be added. I need like, 5 different songs in close proximity. Also, if being able to sync the songs for all players is possible, that would also be useful.

Thanks in advance, denied or not.
