I need to load several textures (and maybe other resources in future) at the background thread. What is the best way to do it?

I found Application.LoadLevelAdditiveAsync but i don’t wont to make a level for each resource.

Also there is AssetBundle.LoadAsync method. But i don’t understaid if I can include AssetBundle into my project or it can be only loaded externally (through WWW class).

Tell me please what is the best approach.
Thank you.

My solution is using StreamingAssets folder to store textures and WWW class to load them asynchronously.
