    Streaming music (whether by Windows Media Player or VLC player) via external Bluetooth speakers bogs Windows 8 down something chronic. Everything becomes extremely unresponsive and crashes are frequent. As soon as Bluetooth streaming is paused, the system goes back to it's normal snappy self. This shouldn't be happening on a quad core processor and SSD. Any ideas as to what the issue could be?
