Can anyone watch this using Ubuntu and whatever browser?

I've never been able to watch it due to living in the UK, but I'm guessing it needs IE for something? You could try ies4linux :)

I fooled it with User Agent Switcher (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/59) into thinking I was Vista/IE7, then it wanted me to installtheir software...

Ack, Installing their software is always the downfall...I don't know any other legal way to watch it either :(

Any TV I watch off the Inet, so this is a problem with any flavor of Linux for me.

I left them feedback a while ago asking if they were planning on allowing linux users to watch. No reply...
