Each domain name which is registered and hosted has a lot of DNS records - some of them are set up automatically when you host a domain, others can be created by hand if necessary. For instance, the A record of a domain is its IP address i.e. this record reveals where the web site is situated; the MX records reveal where the e-mails are stored, while with an SRV record you can use a domain name for unconventional purposes, such as a Voice-over-IP service. To be able to create and modify certain records enables you to have different services with different companies if, for example, your present host provides good web hosting, but has troubles with the e-mail service, or you simply prefer to get a specific service from a certain company. Though you will be able to set up and edit these records freely and with no limits as you own a given domain name, lots of companies charge extra to give you this option.
