If you're one to miss shifts and grind gears, you might want to change it more often.

I just had my tranny rebuilt due to worn blocker rings (2000 had the old paper type), and the tranny fluid and tranny were still immaculately clean. This was at 60,000-65,000 miles and the fluid had never been changed. That said, I would agree with the 50,000 mile change.
