Broadband provider CenturyLink was the latest player to jump into the live tv streaming landscape last week.

During the roll out announcement CenturyLink announced they would be available on many popular streaming devices including smartphones, tables, PC, Mac and Roku. With more to be announced soon.

You can purchase the player from their site for $89.99 (shipping included), and sign up for a free 7 day trial of their service at the same time.
