Frequent Brake rotor replacement on 9-5

My brother and I I both have 1999 9-5 (Mine is a wagon), as well as one of my friends. We all have them serviced at the same dealer, and every car has had brake pads AND rotors replaced every 30k mile service- this is without the pads being worn down to the skids. The pads I can except- it is the rotors needing to be replaced this often. I say it is the dealer's way of making a buck, my brother says the dealer is honest. So, to settle a brotherly dispute- Do the Rotors wear much faster on the Saab 9-5 than other cars? If they do, is there any replacement brands that might last longer (and offer better performance). I haven't seen any postings on this.
Thanks,
D
