Use allofmp3 if you want to pay, then you can get unDRMed files in the quality you want.
Some thoughts on how DRM might fall this year:

if you really want to pay for music and have peace of mind for "not stealing" then allofmp3 is not the way to go. they don't pay any royalty fees to the artists (which is why it's so cheap) and the only reason they're still around is because they're located in Russia and the law there is very lax as far as copryright infringement goes. as far as the RIAA is concerned anything you download from there is the same as downloading from a torrent site or newsgroup
it's still a very good site though as you get songs in whatever format and bitrate you want, and they have a lot of stuff that is just impossible to find elsewhere. i mainly use it for albums that aren't available on any torrent or newsgroup
