I do not see such a line in Squeeze or Sid. What version of apt do
you have installed?
$ dpkg --status apt | awk '/Version:/{print$NF}'
0.8.10.3+squeeze1

Or is /etc/cron.daily/apt from an version that has already been
updated? That line doesn't appear in Lenny, Squeeze or Sid.
Are you actualy running Ubuntu? Ubuntu has a call to apt-key in their
version of the package.
The Debian man page for apt-key says:
net-update
...
APT in Debian does not support this command and relies on
update instead, but Ubuntu's APT does.
