Any active domain name that is added in a hosting account has a variety of records that allow it to perform properly. In the common case, the name servers (NS records) show the location where the domain name is hosted and they are set on the side of the registrar company, but on the lower level there are certain records set through the hosting company like A (IP address of the website/server), MX (email server), SRV (using a domain name for non-website purposes on a particular port number like Voice-over-IP), etc. Having access to these records and by being able to modify them, you could have your web site with company A and your emails with company B, for instance. This offers you more independence since you can choose the best provider for every one of these services and you don't need to stick with only one company. After you pick a hosting company, you have to make sure that you have access to all DNS records freely because some providers have an additional fee for this function.
