Facebook is quite a limited platform, but external links can be entered into modules on facebook group pages, as well as large images and other customisable fields. Things can actually be embedded into the page as well (if you play a facebook game for example, you find the game page consists of a regular group page with an external link for flashplayer or java, or the flashplayer/java item is embedded into the facebook page. With HTML5 I imagine it could be a lot more flexible although facebook is not compatible with this as of yet. I'm not sure they are actually planning to cut external links, it does however warn users that they are visiting an external link and thus it may contain suspicious or potentially harmful items.
Myspace is actually a lot more flexible, record labels and artists use it to implement and embed flashplayer/java modules, interactive links and external properties etc. Although im sure we don't have a myspace page as it has changed to be more about music.
