Same as all above, in order:

Goodrich/ Fibrax (most expensive £14 - £16)

Hope (can get them from about £9)

Superstar (cheap as chips - mixed reviews - £5 

all in sintered variety! 

I haven't used Goodridge pads although their hoses seem to be good quality!

I've used the original pads that came with the Hope Mini's and they performed ok. At the mo, I'm using these. They also perform well and have lasted longer than the original pads!

fibrax sintered.

4 pairs for £40 on crc.

Goodridge sintered here too, nice bite and if bedded in well will outlast any other pads me or my riding mates have used.

As for EBC mike, I suspect you didn't get them bedded proper, I've used them lots and they last well, good pads, not quite upto goodridge standards but not far off.

a2z or BBB blue pads usually. A lot cheaper than Hope Black, work and last just as long.

Just getting use to Superstar pads, stopping power is amazing, watch this space for longevity.

Tried EBC green pads and they lasted less than 50miles in the dry.
