I've Googled many ways for PGN downloads, but there's no site that has what I'm looking for. How do you import the *latest* tournament PGN files into your chess program? What I really mean is, where do you go to get them? Is there a central site that grabs these newly finished tournament PGN files and posts 'em for download? I know I can go to chessbase.com or chesscenter.com and download the tournaments that way. Is there anything more convenient (not that it's a big pain in the @ss). Also, which PGN download site(s) do you like?

This site has many links to other sites that have PGN files: http://www.chessgameslinks.lars-balzer.info/

Sort of overwhelming, data-wise and visually. Egad.
