I've almost always used the finned stock pads. The one time I tried a cheapo alternative, I went through them and trashed a rotor before I realized what happened.
There's something wrong there. You shouldn't be eating pads so fast, and definitely you shouldn't be trashing rotors at that rate while using organic pads.
Do you drag your brakes on descents?
I've only seen pads disintegrating that fast on Formula C1 brakes, but that brake was so bad at all levels that it shouldn't be called a brake at all.
