SQL2005 database backup files

We are in the early (development test) stages of upgrading from SQL200
to SQL2005. We have noticed that our backups, created with the append
option, are not stored as individual .bak files when viewed through
Windows Explorer. From time to time, we have to create disk space by
deleting backup files. How is this managed in SQL2005?
