Whether youre in it for the thrill of the game or the impressive display of commercials and half time shows, Super Bowl 48 is upon us. This year though, youll be able to watch it wherever you want for free. <\/p>\n
If you can say 2013 was a big year for anything, it was surely streaming video. Everything with a screen and WiFi can stream Netflix, with mobile browsers and apps growing exponentially more powerful as smartphones move closer and closer to being the only computer we really need to get through the day. <\/p>\n
Just about everything can be streamed, and there are plenty of people out there willing to dump cable television and live in an all streaming world. As the largest television event in the US draws closer, Fox Sports has announced that the Super Bowl will be streamed on their website for free. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Fox hasnt announced any restrictions to viewing the Super Bowl livestream, or their NFC streams that start this Sunday, but that doesnt mean there wont be. Weve seen limiters in the past that require you somehow prove you have cable service in order to access these streams. While we dont know either way, theres plenty of good reasons to let the stream be free for all. The big money maker for these events are the commercials, and especially when it comes to the Super Bowl there can be no greater reason to want eyeballs more than subscriptions. <\/p>\n
Over the past two years there has been no shortage of alternate services to stream parts of Super Bowl content, but Fox Sports has the ability here to offer the whole package and keep people streaming for hours. This includes people on smartphones, tablets, laptops, and more who would be in places where they cant just sit in front of a television. A stream like this could really set the tone for large televised events for the rest of the year, so it will be interesting to see how this gets handled. <\/p>\n
