With something like a piano, which takes a huge investment of time, care and skill to create, you could argue that your ownership of the item isn't all there is to consider.

| Re: Art or Vandalism? If you paid the Dolla dolla bills y'all for the piano, then you can do whatever the fuck you want to it. The time/care/skill is covered by the fat wad of cash the guy recieved from you when you purchased it. After that you could hollow it out and sail it down the danube for all i care! |

You wouldn't give a shit?
Obviously you couldn't question my right to do such a thing, but are you telling me you'd care not a jot?

And i wouldnt call what you were doing vandalism, as its destroying your own property - even if i did create it. |
