I noticed that almost all the radio stations on SqueezeBox server are on
Radiotime and in this format.

http://opml.radiotime.com/Tune.ashx?id=s22199&formats=aac,mp3,wma,wmpro,wmvoice,wmvideo,ogg&partnerId=16

This means that when you start them they plan in AAC format because
that is the first on the supported stream list. This causes SBS to start
transcoding the AAC to FLAC creating unnecessary processor load on the
SBS server. 

You can tune in a URL like this 
http://opml.radiotime.com/Tune.ashx?id=s22199&formats=mp3&partnerId=16
and get the mp3 stream. But then you need to have custom URLs for all
your stations.

Is there a way to make the mp3 or ogg stream the default so the streams
can be decoded directly by the squeezebox player?
