Yeah, it sounds like it. I'm a bit ticked off that so many people (my local shop included) have talked about discs like they are just the greatest damn things you can put on a bicycle. But, nothing I can do about that. I've got 'em, and they do work okay, but doing it all over again, I'd just get some good rim brakes.
