I think with these website, if you copy and paste them and then publish them without buying it, you can get sued for Copyright Infringement. Another thing is, when you buy the picture, I think what you are given is the high resolution copy of the picture which you can use for publishing purposes.

Well these images aren't really for regular people, but for those who want to use the images to publish with their content of their choice. If you publish someone's photo that you copied and pasted, you will get sued if it is found out, that is pretty risky for business, so you have to do it the legal way and buy rights to photos. A lot of companies hire people to take their pictures, but many buy them pre-taken for things such as brochures, pamphlets, fliers, websites, etc., it's endless.
