Quick rotor and brake question

I'm getting ready to do a front suspension rebuild and brake job. The rotors were new as of the last brake job. I know you don't turn MB rotors. So my question is: Do I have to replace the rotors every time? Or can the rotors go 2 sets of pads? I looked at them and they don't look bad and have a very slight "lip". They appear to be fine, but I was just wondering if it was common practice to always replace the rotors. I would prefer not to at about 50 bucks a shot....but if I have to.....

Also, does anyone know of a good blow-by-blow post of how to do a brake job and bearings? I know Thomaspin does, but ya gotta suscribe now.....I might end up doing that anyway, but just thought I would ask first.
