The present invention provides a method, apparatus, and system to separate data from a digital broadcast signal for distribution via a computer network to clients. A data separation device separates digital video information, digital audio information and digital data from a digital broadcast signal. The data separation device can be installed at a Network Operating Center (NOC) (e.g. a cable or broadcast NOC). A router coupled to the data separation device transmits the digital data to a computer network (e.g. the Internet) for access by a client receiver system. A digital-to-analog (D/A) converter converts the digital video and audio information into analog video and audio information, respectively, for transport to the client receiver system. The client receiver system can include a computer having a modem, as well as, a display (e.g. a TV or computer monitor). The computer receives the digital data from the computer network via the modem and displays the digital data in conjunction with the analog video and audio information on the display.
