Disagree - this is strongly out of character for him. Rolling Stone has an article pointing out that Dylan has accepted - in person - a dozen awards far less prestigious than the Nobel.
He's being a wanker. He changed his name from 'Zimmerman' to 'Dylan', he might was well change it to 'Wanky Wankerson'.

Dylan blows. Award it to Clapton or posthumously BB King or RL Burnside.

Condensed version. Dylan blows.
Although I was not aware it could not be awarded posthumously. Thank you for the enlightenment.

I can't tell you how many times they've offered me the Nobel Prize, and I've had to turn it down due to prior commitments. Once I had an overdue library book to return...another time I needed a fill for my nails. Then there was the time I was busy arguing about free will on the internet.
Sometimes real life gets in the way of receiving international awards. It just happens. No big deal. You can get the Prize for cultural, academic, or scientific achievements, and they give them out every year, so there's plenty of opportunities to receive another one.
