Backup sizes

We use LiteSpeed backups and was wondering if there is a way in one of those
msdb backup tables that shows me the size of the compressed backups for each
of my dbs?
If so, whats the query?
All i want to know is name of db and its backup size.Take a look at this script:
http://www.sqlcommunity.com/Default.aspx?grm2id=50&tabid=56

LiteSpeed backup and when i compare the output of your results to the size
on disk, they are different. Your output gives me the size assuming I do a
native backup and not SQL.
How can i get the sizes of the backups that I am using and in this case
LiteSpeed ? are there special LiteSpeed tables ?
