Yeah, I believe they most likely do come with a EULA.  I've only redeemed a coup
le of them, but I've never really watched them on streaming if I own a physical 
copy.  I tend to rip my physical copies to put on my own media server, which is 
usually how I watch them these days.  I feel like I don't have a need for their 
digital version.

I'm a little surprised.  I've seen movies for purchase on streaming services for
 years - at least some of them.  Amazon has a lot of them on their streaming ser
vice, Amazon Prime.  For instance, this is one example - The new Naked Gun movie
 with Liam Neeson - Amazon has it to purchase for $16.99 right now (normally $19
.99) or for rent for $2.99:
