He means not just the core OS but also the application ecosystem.
In Windows the OS release is just the core OS, and then users
manually install newer versions of whatever applications they
want.
As they do in Ubuntu, unless the application is in the core OS
repositories.
(I would argue that any software project that has their act
together will have .debs for the LTS downloadable from their web
site or a PPA, or even via -backports, so in practice this isn't
that different. However, I believe that was the distinction he was
drawing.)

Any software project that has their act together is in MyApps. ;-)

Many of the relevant software projects aren't apps themselves. Wine is
probably a great example.
