The cheapest rotor that I can recommend is Raybestos from www.rockauto.com
If you want to get really good but still pretty cheap, ATE from www.tirerack.com
A8 upgrade is an option, but even with that, I wouldn't cheap out on the rotors. The cheap ECS kit comes with junk rotors from what I can tell.
My A4 is my secondary car so I picked Raybestos Advanced Technology rotors. Pretty good, reasonably priced.

Based on what criteria? Do you mean the blanks in the basic kit? I've had mine nearly four years (the Powerstop drilled/slotted option) and have no issues whatsoever - no warping, rusting, radial stress cracks from the drill holes, absolutely zero issues. I know several others here who likewise have run them for years and have no issues and a huge percentage of the rotor life left on them...
