Every single domain that is registered and hosted has a great deal 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 situated; the MX records show where the e-mails are stored, while through an SRV record you can use a domain for unconventional purposes, for instance a Voice-over-IP service. To be able to create and modify certain records permits you to have different services with different providers if, for example, your current host provides good web hosting, but has troubles with the e-mail service, or you simply prefer to get a specific service from a particular company. Though you will be able to create and modify these records freely and with no limitations as you own a given domain name, a lot of companies charge extra to give you this option.
