Each domain that is registered and hosted has lots of DNS records - some of them are created automatically when you host a domain, others can be set up by hand if necessary. For example, the A record of a domain name is its IP address i.e. this record shows where the website is situated; the MX records show where the e-mails are handled, while through an SRV record you can use a domain for unconventional purposes, for instance a Voice-over-IP service. Being able to set up and modify specific records permits you to have different services with different providers if, for example, your current host provides stable web hosting, but has difficulties with the e-mail service, or you simply prefer to get a specific service from a certain company. Even though you will be able to set up and modify these records freely and with no restrictions as you own a given domain name, lots of companies charge extra to give you this option.
