Road disc pads I'm usually replacing because it seems like a good idea at the time or just before a big block of training/racing. Usually mid season/~8000km. The "worn" pads usually are good for emergency spares still. i.e. I'd still happily put them back in for a couple of months light training use locally.
Personally, my discs get swapped when i fancy a change of colour.
