Since my computer is always on-line, I use MagicJack rather than a 'normal' phone service - works fine so far, and I can make cheap international calls as well - 2c per minute to UK
Re lack of CenturyLink-DirecTV discount - same here, so I called DirecTV and said I wanted to cancel (only two weeks into a two year contract) as they hadn't fulfilled their side of the deal. They immediately (well, after an hour on the phone) credited my account with $120 being $5 per month for 24 months
