Apt is definitely *not* flaky. I have not seen problems for months now, regularly updating quite a few Pi..yes i originally used the fresh install and i had the same problem, ( i have tried 3 different OSs) so i tried a mirror site instead - same problem.
Why is this APT so flaky ?. A nooby downloading raspian and trying to install a new package will give up immediately.
BTW what you put in the source list file is not a mirror but a link to the mirror service itself. To use a mirror check out the raspbian site.
As noted you also have the problem with archive.raspberrypi.com which is a separate server and doesn't use mirrors.
Also: use 'apt' instead of 'apt-get'
