Each and every domain name which 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 by hand if necessary. For example, the A record of a domain is its IP address i.e. this record shows where the web site is situated; the MX records show where the e-mails are managed, 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 allows you to have different services with different providers if, for example, your present host provides dependable web hosting, but has troubles with the email service, or you simply prefer to get a specific service from a specific company. Although you must be able to create and modify these records freely and without any restrictions as you own a given domain name, some companies charge extra to give you this option.
