Doesn't matter if it's superior. If you can't market right, you lose every time. In the US, we have so many different providers, there is hardly any room for another. There's Garmin. TomTom, Navigon, and MapQuest. Plus, there's a bunch of little apps like Waze that let you report traffic problems and accidents.
When you're comfortable with using one, you're not going to change to another. Hence, most of us have been using Google Maps since it launched in 2005/6, and before that MapQuest since the mid 90's.
The reason why Apple Maps is "trash" is because it takes from multiple sources. When it was powered by Google Maps, it was perfectly fine.
