| window releases ventanas de lanzamiento (más cortas)
Explanation:
Estoy seguro de que no es una errata por "Windows". Las versiones de Windows no tienen mucho que ver con este tema, y hay una alternativa mucho más pertinente.
"Window" se refiere al periodo que transcurre entre el estreno de una película en los cines y su lanzamiento en DVD, o en Internet. Los estudios sacan la mayor parte de sus beneficios de las ventas de DVD, así que tienden a adelantar el lanzamiento.
"Disney Reignites DVD Window Release Debate
In the traditional release window model movies are first released in the movie theatres and about four months later on DVD, and about 45 days later on VOD, and then about 18 months later on pay TV."

"Many Factors Affect Early Video Window Release
As home video becomes the biggest percentage of a film's total revenue potential, it's clear that studios are moving video release dates up, in general, for all films and, in certain instances, dramatically forward. [...]
One studio, Columbia TriStar Home Entertainment (CTHE), seems to have made a conscious decision to release films earlier (see the story on page 8 in this week's edition of VSM). Of the total number of DVDs released within 100 days of their theatrical debuts since the inception of the format, CTHE has about one-third of the titles, and the studio overall has had the shortest theatrical-to-video window average of all the major studios, according to the DVD Release Report."

Este periodo suele llamarse la "ventana de lanzamiento":
"Walt Disney va a por todas y en busca de un "taquillazo", ha reconvertido el film [Alicia en el País de las Maravillas] en 3D. La polémica se ha generado cuando la compañía del ratón anunció que para hacer más caja acortaría la ventana de lanzamiento en DVD y Blu-Ray, que tendría lugar sólo tres meses después del estreno en cine, para coincidir con el verano."

"Su precio en aquella época para una película directa a la venta era de 2995 pts y su ventana de lanzamiento de cine a dvd no solía bajar de los 6 meses."

A propósito del comentario de Marta, es cierto que la expresión "release window" se emplea habitualmente, pero "earlier window release" también se emplea, en el sentido de "lanzamiento con una 'ventana' más corta". Por ejemplo:
"Internationally, the Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol will open on approximately 200 IMAX screens beginning on Dec. 14 , with several markets receiving an early window release in IMAX ahead of their wide release"

"With online viewership surging, it would seem wiser for studios to put more of their strategic resources into figuring how to better tap into this demand than by potentially harming early window theatrical release with Premium VOD. This would help unlock more films for Netflix and others to stream. [...]
"However, as Disney knows from its experiment last year of accelerating the DVD release of "Alice in Wonderland," which raised the ire of British theater owners, balancing these objectives is no easy feat. Meanwhile, as "Premium Video-on-Demand," an early window release plan for $30-$40 per movie approaches, theater owners' unhappiness will become even more apparent."

"Due to many changes within the industry in the past few years, the "window" kept shrinking. But due to Disney's plan for such an early DVD release, one of the international exhibitors, the fourth largest Dutch firm, announced they would boycott the film if the standard "window" release time was not adhered to"

"As a result of the FCC ruling, Meyer [CEO Warner Bros] said, "we are actively pursuing opportunities for an early window release of our films over cable and satellite systems in advance of DVD and Blu-ray."

Otra posible traducción sería simplemente "lanzamientos más tempranos".
