As far as consumers care, mostly because it's rather slow and somewhat lacking competition.  Also, apparently MacOS and Linux versions are horrible compared to the Windows version of Flash - since Adobe controls it, not much can be done about it.
(note, I don't really know how well Silverlight goes)

As for Apple, it's probably just them trying to lock in devs to develop for their platform.  HTML5 is quite some years off to being finalised, and most devs don't really want to support something which isn't even standardised yet, especially when some aspects aren't consistent across browsers.  And HTML5+JS isn't as powerful or flexible as Flash, neither does it have as nice an environment to build things with.
