Hello and welcome to Slate Money, your weekly guide to the important business and finance news of the week.

I'm Felix Salmon, a fusion in New York, and on the show this week, the Supreme Court decided the fate of Aereo

an internet television streaming service. We'll dive into dark pools amid allegations that Barclays put

its profits ahead of its customers. Imagine that. And we'll also tell you why lots of rich people

are spending at least 183 days a year

in Puerto Rico. I think you can probably guess. And last but certainly not least, we'll close

with the numbers lightning round as we do every week. First, let me introduce regular guest,

Kathy O'Neill, head of the lead program for data journalism at Columbia University.

Hello, Kathy.

What's your number this week?

My number is 0.25.

That's a low number.

And we also have Slate's own Moneybox columnist, Jordan Weissman.

Jordan, I'm assuming that your number is going to be bigger than one quarter.

Yes, yes, it will be. It's going to be 11,000.

11,000. My number is 300 million, so I beat both of you by a few orders of magnitude.

We are going to start with Aereo. It falls to me to try and explain what's going on here.

Probably many of you lovely listeners have used Aero, or at least heard about it. It's a clever

little service where you can watch television, broadcast television on your phone or your

computer, and broadcast television is free. And what Aereo does is, well, we'll just pick it up for free.

We'll give you your own little aerial.
