Aluminum brake rotors only work on mountain bikes. And even anodizing is a coating and would come off as soon as you used the brakes once.

Project Mu has some that appear to use a very dark metal. I can't tell if it's a black oxide coating that will come off the first time you hit the brakes like the zinc ones do, or if they're actually using a unique type of Iron.

I didn't call you a newb (even though technically speaking on THIS forum, you are).

I said "A NEWB". I did not specifically mention you or anyone else.

Like it or not, you probably won't be the only person to ever read this thread. Some people might actually use the search feature 6 months from now and come across this thread again. I was just trying to provide specific information so as to avoid confusing a potentail future "newb" reader of this thread.

No need to get all butt-hurt.
