Georgia-Pacific has product called DensArmor, which is
gypsum board with
a fiberglass (instead of paper) facing. The ads say mold is
less likely
to grow. The 5/8" x 4'x8' sheet costs US$19 here in Kansas
City, and
only three places carry it. For comparison, regular 5/8
sheetrock at
Lowe's is US$8.64 right now. I've never used the new stuff,
but I
filled-out the form for the samples, and I got a box full of
them today.

So, is it worth the ten extra bucks?

Im sure it is in some locations,, hard wear areas, and moist
areas. It might be 10% of the market. not for most of the
house though. but a hot option for those other areas.
