The "greatest hits," if you just want to jump straight to some of my favorite pieces:  

I've written about music and books for the New York Times; some of these pieces are free, some aren't.

I write record reviews for Pitchfork:

I wrote for the Village Voice from 1996 to 2005, including (for the last few years) a column on the music business, "The Sound of the Industry." A bunch of things I wrote for them are on their site:

I write about pop music and pop culture for Slate:

I review graphic novels and write about the comics industry for Publishers Weekly:

I wrote for New Times Los Angeles, back when it existed. Here are some articles (these links don't currently work--try archive.org if you want to read these pieces):
