It's a feature that allows you to put images with differing retentions on a
single tape. Normally NB will group similar retentions together.
The default method, single-retention per tape, is preferred IMHO. A tape is
not reusable until every image on that tape completes its retention period.
If you're running mixed retentions, then one long-retention image will
"lock" that tape from reuse until it expires, even if every other image on
that tape expired months ago.
By grouping retentions, the shorter retention tapes will not be locked from
reuse by a stray long-term image.
I'd only recommend allowing multiple retentions per media if you're using a
tape stacker or other non-library like device.
