How long (miles) should Allroad rear brake discs last?

Can anyone give me an idea how long Allroad rear (and front while you're at it) brake discs should last? Are they good for 50,000, 75,000 or 100,000 miles? When should one expect to change them?

how and where do you drive?

My commute is 50 miles one way, highway driving and bumper to bumper NY roads, I got 35K out of the rears the first time, I am an fast driver so this has a lot to do with it.

85k on front 90k+ on rear

Over half my driving is long distance open raod. Six speed saves brake wear as well, I think.

30k on my car... All rotors have been replaced twice...

All under warranty, due to warping. This last set has ben tru for over 10k miles, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed. And no... I do not track the car, or even drive it that hard. I belive that there is a design flaw, or was on the 2002 cars, anyway.
