I feel the forced seller aspect to be very interesting in how it affects the market of course for years they were a forced buyer. But ETFs add a level of ease of purchase and sale to the PM market which are not always incredibly liquid relative to other markets so the forced buying and selling can have interesting effects.

The forced sale does pile onto the problem of not enough buyers right now. Agreed, theyre great for using PMs as an investment vehicle as you can be in and out in seconds.

Everyone always talks about how theyve drive the price of metals down which they are contributing too now, but they also drove the prices up when everyone was jumping on the band wagon

Exactly. And one could argue that can present opportunity. Also this article shows they have physical holdings not just futures contracts. Currently I don't own any but in the past I used SGOL instead of GLD.
