Replace pads *and* rotors?

Not Boxster related but I figured you guys would know.

A friend of mine took his Tuareg in to have his brake pads replaced (light came on). The car has 40,000km on it. The dealership told him that he has to replace all four sets *and* the rotors. They say they are designed this way. Replace the pads.. replace the rotors too. No exceptions.

Is this true? A load of crap? They want to charge him $1700 CDN. I've never heard of such a thing.
