Every single domain name that's registered and hosted has a lot of DNS records - some of them are created automatically when you host a domain, others can be created manually if necessary. As an illustration, the A record of a domain address is its IP address i.e. this record reveals where the site is situated; the MX records show where the emails are stored, while with 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 companies if, for example, your current host provides good web hosting, but has issues with the e-mail service, or you simply prefer to get a certain service from a particular company. Though you can set up and edit these records freely and without any limits as you own a given domain, a lot of companies charge extra to give you this option.
