As I understand it, MB designed rotors to wear with pads so that it's a good idea to replace both at the same time....which is what I've done. Is that what everyone around here does? Has anyone had success just replacing the pads and then replacing rotors every other time?

I'm glad to save money where I can....but I hate brake annoyances even more.
