The way to make something ubiquitious is to either make it open or very easy to license.

Looks at PC's VS MACs... anyone can make a PC so they are ubiquitious.

Look at Micro-channel vs ISA/PCI

Look at Ethernet vs Token Ring

Look at AC vs DC... (kidding)

Then again, iPod breaks the rule here. Never mind!
