MySpace made many mistakes, the worst of which is that they would do absolutely anything to increase short term revenue regardless of the effect on the experience. The result was a messy, user-hostile product that was bleeding users to anything that offered a better social experience.
Zuckerberg is smarter than that. Facebook may (probably will, at some point) lose its dominance, but it won't be a repeat of the MySpace debacle. Perhaps people will gradually realize that "Facebooking" is not the same as real socializing, it's a low-effort, low-value pseudo-social entertainment activity.
