As much as Murdoch will be needing to make every penny from Myspace, there's not a chance in hell that they'll start charging for the basic myspace package. The same rumours have been going around about Hotmail since 1996, too.
You can see the start of the money making though - adverts everywhere. Advertising "real estate" will go for a bomb, so it's likely that they'll not only plaster the site in adverts, but charge people for premium features, ala Livejournal.
If Myspace charged for the basic sign up, it would be commercial suicide and they know it.
