Not a simple answer.

Pretty much anyone legit that sells music online will be required to have some sort of DRM, (copy protection) in place to satisfy the record labels.

I know that with the iTunes store you are "authorized" to use a purchased song on I think 5 machines.

But if you take the song and burn to a disc you effectively kill the DRM and can do whatever you please with it.

The other thing is if you are purchasing an MP3, the quality will be compromised severly or minimally depending on the bitrate used when converting to mp3.

Buy the CD, rip it yourself.
