Apple vs. Google in Your Living Room, DC vs. Marvel at the Movies

Our weekly geek investing show tackles the battle to become your new set-top box, the Justice League's future on the silver screen, and the Captain America sequel's hopes for a star-spangled opening weekend.

By Tim Beyers, Nathan Alderman, and Ellen Simonson Rosenthal – Apr 5, 2014 at 3:10PM EST

Apple (AAPL +1.20%) and Google (GOOGL 0.15%)(GOOG 0.28%) are vying your go-to for Internet-delivered entertainment. Which one has the better chance of winning?

Then, Kevin Tsujihara talks about a better future for Time Warner (TWX +0.00%) and Warner Bros. in an interview with The New York Times. Is the DC vs. Marvel battle about to take a turn in Warner's favor?

Finally, Captain America: The Winter Soldier appears on track for an $90 million or better U.S. opening for Marvel Studios, while Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. suffers a ratings misfire. Is this still a net win for Walt Disney (DIS 0.81%) investors?

Ellen Bowman, Nathan Alderman, and Tim Beyers have these stories and more in this week's episode of 1-Up on Wall Street!
