What the hell?
No tuners don't break your transmission... they make them shift a lot firmer and more efficiently. Also, shift points are adjusted along with how the transmission reacts to sudden changes in throttle position and throttle position in general. Not to mention the benefits of the torque converter acting properly.

Custom tunes are definitely worth it. I have a custom tuned XCal3 from www.VMPtuning.com and I love it.
