Question for those who had CVT failures

I have 76,000 miles and no problems, but I sometimes notice a buzz from my transmission at idle- it sounds like the power steering pump, only a lower frequency sound. Has anyone heard this sound and then have the trans go down? I even wonder if this sound is normal and I'm only noticing it because I have the windows down more often and have been hearing about cvt failures... I do drive it hard, but change the trans oil more often than is required. I'm asking because I prefer proactive over reactive. -love, Jeffy.
