This website contains a list of empty files you can download.
The files aren't necessarily the smallest possible valid file format for the given extension,
but considered "empty" (or "doing nothing") by applications designed to work with them.
Some files can't be empty due to technical limitations.
WAV files can have 0 audio bytes but an MP3 file has always at least one frame of audio.
