Read the booster packs more carefully - the boosters give mostly profession resources, while the asset packs give mostly assets (e.g. dudes and non-consumed items). The asset pack is generally the better buy, in my personal opinion.
There was a thread on this recently, which you really should do a search for as it was quite detailed.
I thought the conclusion was neither - just use the ZEN to get AD to buy what you want off the AH
Keep in mind though that that conclusion only works as long as we have enough people out there buying asset packs. People have to purchase assets from the store and post them at auction since they are the only suppliers. If too many people stop buying asset packs then prices on the auction house will rise until asset packs are once again the better deal.
But right now buying the specific asset you need on the AH is the way to go.
By the way the asset packs aren't the only way to get green, blue or purple assets. A crafting pack that is a quest reward in the graveyard around level 28 sometimes gives those assets. Great zone it also gives the second free adventure storage bag a few quests later.
