Advertisement. Both sites allow companies to place ads on their webpages for a fee. Google has bought exclusive rights to be the sole search engine for MySpace. However, Digg has partners other than Google - but Digg does use Google text ads extensively. Please read the following article:
"Google Exclusive Ad Provider For MySpace.com" -- written associated press (http://cbs13.com/tech/local_story_219193126.html)
"NEW YORK Google Inc. reached a deal Monday with the owner of MySpace.com to share at least $900 million in advertising revenues and become the exclusive search provider for the popular social-networking site.

Under the multiyear deal, News Corp.'s Fox Interactive Media unit will add Google search boxes to MySpace and other sites, likely by the end of the year, and Google will provide search results and keyword ads targeted to people's search terms.

myspace - YES
digg - NO
Myspace sells advertising on the pages.
Digg is not in a profit mode as of yet, they get their money from invetsers that are betting the company in the future will be worth a great deal of money (hundreds of millions or billions$$$)and they can sell it and reap big profits. Lookin' good so far.

Advertisements. They get paid everytime you click an add. Considering there are 115 million myspace. Usually its a penny a click, if they buy something it usually more. Considering if 10 million peeps click on one add a day thats some serious change :)
