If I buy a garmin map on a sd-card can I
1. display that map in mapsource?
2. add a track that I downloaded from a different site?

ad1: No, unless you are very handy with software manipulation. Look at:

ad2: Yes you can add tracks to your device and see them on the map you are
using (ofcourse same place!)

the difference between getting maps on SDcard vs DVD/download
SDcard - locked to that physical card only, can be used in any GPS,
but no "source image" to be used with MapSource
DVD/download - may be installed and potentially locked to a specific GPS,
and will be installed on PC for MapSource usage
