Each and every domain that is 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 required. As an illustration, the A record of a domain address is its IP address i.e. this record shows where the site is located; the MX records show where the emails are handled, while with an SRV record you can use a domain for unconventional purposes, such as a Voice-over-IP service. Being able to set up and modify particular records enables you to have different services with different providers if, for instance, your current host provides dependable web hosting, but has troubles with the email service, or you simply prefer to get a specific service from a particular company. While you should be able to create and modify these records freely and with no restrictions as you own a given domain, a lot of companies charge extra to give you this option.
