Yeah, the same site was mentioned on Mon, 26 Oct 2009, in http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/asrg/current/msg15762.html

that a scenario we've theorised about for years is finally here.
I found the link below to a service that will decode captcha's for you
for $2 per success. It was in an add served me by gmail!

Actually $2 for _1000_ successes, i.e. 0.002 USD per solved CAPTCHA.

A human --the H in captcha-- can solve 0.85 captchas per second, according to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2zOirfX9CZc
