I'm not sure how I feel about this. They aren't matching you up with people they've vetted or know -- they're just finding you a date from other online dating services. And then charging you $75 (which could end up being $150 for them if they get both people via their site).
We've setup drinks for people through our own personal networks (one or two degrees away from the matchmaker), and they've gone well. We use a variety of options, but our philosophy is: we don't care where we find a match, as long as they're good, that's all that matters. We can also keep notes on everyone using it.

Semi-related, but Tim Ferriss has an interesting story about how he "outsourced his love life": http://blog.timferriss.com/1/post/2009/07/how-to-tim-ferriss...
