This is also how I do it but I thought I read in a previous post that this is not the "best" way of doing it. Is this correct?

That depends on what you want to happen when they click on that asset? I've found the "ServiceLink" component indispensable in this regard. You can create a simple little arbitrary engine service without the hassle of creating new link components to run it...So..In your case you could: Define a new engine service that serves files to people in such a way that it'll correctly invoke their browsers application content handling type - or download if none is found...(Ie setting response type , etc..) Then use a simple ServiceLink to pass in what you want to give the service, which is presumably a local asset you have defined.
