Official Roku PC App for Windows Available?

According to eazystreaming.com article from 20 July 2020

http://eazytvstreaming.com/roku-software-on-pc/#:~:text=billed%20for%20anything.-,The%20Roku%20PC%20App,using%20their%20PC%2C%20or%20Tablet. 

"The Official Roku PC App is now available in your PC's Windows 10 Store which can be downloaded for Free."

I did locate the app in the store, yet it states that it is unavailable. (See image below.) I realize the website could be in error. The article was written 9 days ago, and it appeared to be authoritatively written, yet, the author could have been in error. 

Seeing the listing for the app in the Microsoft Store elevated my hopes. I appreciate any research into this app and its availability.

HI MDS. I'm Greg, an installation specialist, 10 years awarded Windows MVP, and Volunteer Moderator, here to help you.

That article is dated at the bottom: July 8, 2019

This one announced removal of the Roku App from MS Store on Nov 4, 2019:

Similar thing happened with the Youtube and Amazon prime video apps. I think some providers would rather make it work through a browser than struggle with Windows Apps.

Hope it helps.

Thank you, Greg, for spotting the correct date. I have opened so many tabs in Chrome and Edge while researching, and I misread. I am disappointed, yet I know that I can stream many of the services separately, including the Roku stream itself. I appreciate your prompt, definitive response. I need to go clean up my "desktop".
