Both types of water are used for drinking. Water from wells is usually "hard" water; water from lakes or rivers is usually "soft" water (but this may not be true in all cases; rivers or lakes that are fed primarily by springs will usually be hard-ish water compared to rivers or lakes that are formed primarily from rainfall or snow melt runoff).
There's nothing inherently wrong with drinking hard water; in fact it may be slightly healthier than soft water, because it contains calcium (and often iron). However, if you're used to soft water, hard water will taste funny to you and vice versa.

Soft water is not for drinking so there are not really any soft water drinking systems. The process of water softening uses a form of rock salt to filter out the chemicals that make the water hard. This provides high levels of sodium in the water and while not exactly fatal, it is definitely not good for the body.
