You can use a program called Total Recorder. It will record music
streams from the internet. Here is a link to the program.

One option for downloading songs is using Media Player 9:

 1. Click Services from the taskbar 
 2. Browse the available services. New services will be added
periodically so be sure to check back often.

Available services will vary depending on where you live. Do you live
in the USA, or elsewhere?

Regarding the legality of burning songs to a CD - this is a massive
subject - there is some information and links to be found in a
previous answer:

Downloading music can be done legally for $0.99 per song on iTunes. 
While iTunes is created by the Apple Computer corporation, it can also
be used on PCs.  Also, Pepsi is giving away 1,000,000 songs.  One in
three bottles of pepsi has a code that allows you to buy a free song
on iTunes.

First, you create an account through iTunes at http://www.itunes.com

Second, you must download iTunes from http://www.itunes.com

After downloading, run the iTunes application and search for songs!

The downside of iTunes, however, is that all downloaded songs are
protected content.  The files can only be run in iTunes, yet you can
still burn them to CD.  Once burned to CD, the songs can be ripped
(copied off the CD) to your computer as any file type you desire.

If you are wanting to download songs legally for free, try a site like
http://www.mp3.com  But with thousands of hit songs at $0.99 each, the
music is practically free anyway.

Happy Downloading -- LEGALLY!
