SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) Apple Inc. is the elephant in the room when it comes to the mobile payments market, where it could potentially become a major player and a serious threat to PayPal and eBay, an analyst said Wednesday.
Apple AAPL, -0.83% is expected to also unveil a mobile payments platform on Sept. 9, in addition to a new version of the iPhone and its own smartwatch device.
For years, Apple was seen as the elephant in the room with respect to mobile and online payments, and the source of speculation around the presumed launch of a consumer payments iWallet, Baird analyst Colin Sebastian said in a note.
While there is no shortage of competition in payments, we view Apple as perhaps the most legitimate potential threat to PayPals strong position, he added.
Mobile payments is a growing market that has drawn major competitors led by eBay, which owns PayPal, Google and Amazon.com. The mobile payments market is expected to reach $1 trillion globally by 2017, Sebastian noted, citing data from IDC.
With more than 800 million iTunes accounts, Apple is well-positioned to expand its presence in that space, Sebastian said.
The company has a strong base of existing customers that it could leverage for mobile payments, he added.
We believe Apples closed-platform, software expertise, and brand power position it well, he added. Additionally, integration with its anticipated wearable device could be a key feature. We believe mobile payments could be a significant opportunity.

Multi-roomaudio is a popular addition to homes today, withSonosbecoming a leadingname in the space. But it certainly isn't the only player in the game --Denon, a high-end component maker,also has a solution, and has now teamed with Spotify for additional functionality.
The HEOS system comes in three different models -- the HEOS 3, HEOS 5 and HEOS 7. Each is sized differently and ranges from high-end performance to portable. And now the system has Spotify built-in.
"With HEOS, you can stream Spotify in any room of your home. Listen to tracks directly from your phone, tablet, USB drives or home network. Just use the Spotify app as a remote and control your music anywhere", the streaming service states.
In addition,Denonhas introduced HEOS Amp and HEOS Link, which combine to turn existing speakers and stereo systems into wireless zones. That's a handy feature for retro-fitting existing items.
DenonHEOSdoesn't come cheap, but the company is a high-end product maker, so that likely isn't a surprise. You'll also need to put out the monthly fee for a Spotify Premium account, but it may be worth it for those who have the extra cash to spend.

Marching band uniforms are seen in basement storage as band Director Jennifer Currey exits the crowded area Aug. 19 at Champaign Central High School.

The overcrowding problems at Champaign Central and Centennial high schools have piled up over the years. Here's a small sample:
Central's band room: Room for 45. But 192? 'It's crazy.'
Built in 1956 as an addition to the school, Central's band room comfortably holds about 45 students. And that's without instruments, bands Director John Currey notes.
When it's just the choral students, he says, it's not bad. But bring in the whole orchestra, whose members require more space to move their upper torsos when they play their instruments, and things start to get tight. Add the wind students, and it's even snugger, he says.
And when you try to cram in the entire marching band 192 kids, plus instruments?
"It's maddening," Currey says.

SHAUN STANLEY/Durango Herald
Fort Lewis College freshman Dan McAuliffe of Hingham, Mass., plays the drums of his dorm roommate Andrew Cranmer of Fort Collins as the two move in to their dorm room Friday.
This Thursday, Move-In Day again made for a tumultuous scene at Fort Lewis College.
Incoming freshmen lugged suitcases up to third-floor dormitories. In the parking lots, parents many of them fathers were loaded up like pack animals. Inside the residential halls, the urgency with which mothers ferried vast amounts of bedding sheets, pillow cases and comforters up staircases brought to mind laundry day at the Playboy Mansion.
FLC sophomore Elizabeth Thompson, who was posted outside Animas Halls in case newbies needed technological assistance, said when it came to furnishings, incoming freshmen were showing all the right instincts.
Minifridges are certainly out in full force, she said.
Some new students were even avoiding rookie mistakes.
