Groved brake rotors - how to tell factory groves from just worn out?

I had a bit of noise from my right front wheel, so I took a look at the brake, and sure enough, there's a grove about 1/4" wide and 1/4" deep worn into the rotor. I figured it was shot and it's time to order new front rotors, but then I saw on the forum that some OEM rotors had groves from the factory. Any tips for how to tell if this is the case here, or if it's just wear and tear on the rotor?
