Information collected from Gracenote, which compiles its data from billions of searches on services such as iTunes, Google lyrics and through Sony products, has indicated that Michael Jackson is the most looked-up, reports Music Week.
Other artists who follow Jackson on the list include Bob Marley and Tupac Shakur.
Gracenote added that The Beatles rank highly in Europe and North America, but do not appear in the uppermost parts of the data in other territories.
Jackson was recently overtaken as the most popular person on Facebook by Eminem.
