If you want to watch the Superbowl on your computer, then you have a very limited set of options. You can of course hook your cable box up to the computer and then watch the game that way. That’s probably the easiest thing to do, but I’m guessing that when you ask “how can I watch the Superbowl on my computer,” you are actually asking how you can do it through the Internet.

The simple answer is that you can’t do so. To the best of my knowledge, there is no such thing as a streaming feed of the Superbowl online. The reason for this is that the network that buys the right to show the game paid the National Football League millions of dollars for the right to show it and they are highly unlikely to relinquish that right to someone who wants to see it free over the net.

But what if you live in a foreign country and desperately want to know how can I watch the Superbowl on my computer? Again, the simple answer is: you can’t. While the World Series is available for anyone in a foreign country to watch, streamed live from MLB.TV, the National Football League has no such arrangement.

Although the good news is that you will likely find it broadcast on the local ESPN or Fox Sports channel, regardless of who carries it domestically.

However, there are a few ways you can watch the Superbowl on your computer. They just aren’t simple. First, you can set up a sling box. This little device will sit on top of your cable box and stream the feed through the Internet to any location. So, if you’re stuck in Osaka, Japan and want to know “how can I watch the Superbowl on my computer,” you can ask a friend to set up their cable box with a slingbox and watch the game that way.

Another way you can answer the question, “how can I watch the superbowl on my computer,” is by using one of the free streaming TV services. Some of them, such as TVUNetworks and SopCast will have streaming feeds of the game as well. Basically, they work similarly to a slingbox in that someone needs to be streaming it through their computer onto the net.

The difference is, that you don’t need to be concerned with who is streaming the game. These programs use a peer to peer sharing service, similar to Bit Torrent to allow you and all your friends to see the game through your computer since at the same time you’re watching that amazing touchdown, you’re also simultaneously broadcasting it to someone else watching in a computer nearby.
