Replace brake hoses

Just got back from having my car serviced at my local dealer and they recommend having the brake hoses replaced. My car has 110,000 miles and the recommendation is to replace them at 100,000. They tell me that the hoses ware from within so there's no way to tell current condition. The service
would include a brake flush and would cost $805.95. Is this a good idea...any thoughts??

I suppose it's not a terrible idea to change them, although I doubt it NEEDS to be done. Just buy stainless lines for ~$100 and bleed the system when you put them on. You could do it all yourself for less than $150.
