Every single domain which is registered and hosted has a lot of DNS records - some of them are created automatically when you host a domain, others can be set up by hand if necessary. As an example, the A record of a domain name is its IP address i.e. this record shows where the web site is situated; the MX records show where the emails are managed, while using an SRV record you can use a domain for unconventional purposes, such as a Voice-over-IP service. To be able to set up and modify particular records permits you to have different services with different providers if, for illustration, your present host provides good web hosting, but has issues with the e-mail service, or you simply prefer to get a certain service from a certain company. Although you should be able to set up and edit these records freely and without any limitations as you own a given domain, many companies charge extra to give you this option.
