Your OD was burnt out because thats one of the weakest links in the AOD and usually the first thing to go. Does this mean you shouldnt use it around town? No, I dont think so. It was designed to be used around town and you didnt do anything wrong by driving it that way as you were implying. Of course you could drive around in first gear all the time, and 2nd, 3rd and overdrive would never wear out, but thats up to you.
I use my overdrive and prefer the lower cruising rpms that come with it.
To say using overdrive around town will cause it to burn out is not an accurate statement.
