Because the French government encourages people to use the rail system, there is no national bus system in France. Because of this, ti is nearly impossible to travel inter-regionally in the country by bus. While buses connect towns and cities within regions, there are no buses that connect regions. While you may be able to arrange hopping off a Eurolines bus on one of its longer international routes, there is simply no easy way to travel between Paris and Marseille by coach or bus. You are better off on the train.

You are probably better off taking the TGV from Paris to Marseille, but if you choose to fly it is fairly easy to get affordable flights in between the two cities. Marseille has an airport (MRS), which is located 27 km northwest of Marseille. While Air France has the most daily flights between the two cities, major discount carriers EasyJet and Ryanair also fly into Marseille.
Keep in mind while the flight time is certainly shorter than the plane, by the time you factor in transportation to and from the airport, security etc. flying will probably take more time than taking the train.
