Want to know which nearby gas station has the cheapest pumps? Interested in your daily horoscope? Prism TV has an app for that. Minutes after the Minneapolis City Council approved a franchise agreement with CenturyLink and consequently marked an end of an era in the one-cable town, CenturyLink hosted a news conference about their Prism TV service.

Starting in early June, CenturyLink plans to have its cable service available to limited households throughout all the city's wards as an alternative to Comcast.

Above is a demonstration by CenturyLink representative Patrick Haggerty of some of the features of Prism TV which is distributed through a fiber-optic network.
