How are you watching the Superbowl this weekend?

by Kolmain

With Superbowl Sunday approaching- how are you watching the Superbowl on your Android TV? I don't have OTA or cable, so I'm on the hunt for the best option!

I know that OTA is not an option for OP, but I want to remind everyone else that OTA will be the best quality available to watch the Super Bowl in. The bitrate is higher than an online Fox stream or cable/satellite.

Edit: I also want to add that for major events like this, there is a pretty decent chance that your online stream will fail at some point. Just look at HBO GO on a Game of Thrones premier night. In my experience, there is a 10% chance that your stream will fail and you'll need to spend 5 minutes trying to restart it. The chance of OTA failing on you is ridiculously low. There would need to be some sort of failure in the broadcast system for that to happen.

The Fox Sports app for Android TV will be streaming the game for free (no cable login required).

Use KODI. There is a addon called USTVnow. Legal 720P online streaming. And FOX is a free channel there

What's holding you back from having OTA? Just get an Antenna and HDHomerun and your golden assuming your within 50 miles of a decent size city.

OTA -> HDHomerun Connects -> various displays

We'll start off watching the game in the theater, and depending how interesting it is maybe move around. If it's as bad as half of them probably watch it on a tablet while we take the dog for a night walk in the park.

Our harder topics are 'what should we make to eat' and 'do we let other people come over'.

If you want to try OTA a $10 set of rabbit ears + loop or a $20 fractal antenna (the thin 'paper' ones) are usually good enough for the back of a single TV. For whole home you'll usually be under $100 if you've got cable lines pulled through your house already that you can repurpose.

Most IPTV providers have a weekend option. Usually around $5.
