Each and every domain name that is registered and hosted has lots of DNS records - some of them are set up automatically when you host a domain, others can be created by hand if needed. As an example, the A record of a domain is its IP address i.e. this record shows where the web site is situated; the MX records show where the emails are stored, while through an SRV record you can use a domain for unconventional purposes, including a Voice-over-IP service. To be able to create and modify specific records permits you to have different services with different providers if, for example, your current host provides stable web hosting, but has issues with the email service, or you simply prefer to get a certain service from a particular company. Although you will be able to set up and edit these records freely and without any restrictions as you own a given domain name, some companies charge extra to give you this option.
