I knew this was going to happen anyway, it happens on all german cars the brakes cost money when they wear.

Wow they are ripping you off Bourdo! There is no way you could justify changing the discs every time you change the pads! If you're out of warranty I highly suggest going to a BMW specialist independent service centre or at least try a different Dealership.
The discs should last over several pad changes...heck even if you drove like a racing driver they should still last at least a couple of pad changes.
