Just as confirmation, I went through this a few days ago.
(see the 'Trouble with apt-get" thread, which I appropriated...)

My sources.list is:

deb http://legacy.raspbian.org/raspbian/ wheezy main contrib non-free rpi
deb-src http://legacy.raspbian.org/raspbian/ wheezy main contrib non-free rpi

and seems to work fine.  (I haven't tried to update the lists in sources.list.d
as I don't really need them.)
