Zerobytes in some mp3 files

hello,

what do the 'Zerobytes' in mp3 files do? Some mp3's have them and some not. Some have a lot of them and some only few. I don't quite understand this . Could somebody please explain this to me?
thank you
--alt-presets are there for a reason! These other switches DO NOT work better than it, trust me on this.

you guy's may want to know how I found these 'zerobytes'. I used 'Mp3Test' and there is a setting (option button) which shows all these 'zerobytes'.

Just in case that somebody wants to know the answer...I found out that those 'zero bytes' are necessary for the mp3 and don't provide information about the music file and its errors or quality.
