How long are you going to be in Salzburg? If you are possibly going Munich to Salzburg in the morning and going on to Vienna that evening, you can get some pretty good advance purchase deals (as low as €29 pP) from the Bahn. The only reason it would be better to buy tickets at the train station is for flexibility. The Bayern-Ticket, which you could use for Munich to Salzburg is the same price (€21 single, €29 up to 5 P) from an automat in the station or online. The BT is €2 more if you get it at a ticket counter.

What are you asking or mean by "better?" It easy to buy the day of or day before but you might miss some discount possibility. On the other hand you are not committed to a specific train and time for departure. Trains rarely, if ever, fill up.
