That video seriously looks about as bad as my stock front brakes after 35K miles. It felt very unsafe. However, new EBC slotted rotors in front paired with Hawk Performance Ceramic pads solved my problems completely (except there is still a little squealing during light braking at very low speeds). I had it on a track less than a week after doing the replacement myself, and it performed wonderfully.

Seeing as you are one of the few people on the forum having constant and/or recurring problems with the Z, I certainly hope Nissan steps up and actually helps solve your problems. FWIW, I do not purchase dealer warranties anymore (Honda is the only one I will consider and only because I had a very positive experience with some ridiculous electrical problems in my previous Accord). The third-party warranty may cost me a bit more in the long run (varying deductibles and such), but I'd rather not have to rely on a dealer.
