Rust CLI mp3 Player

Screenshot of the mp3 player running in my terminal

I've been trying to learn the programming language Rust recently, and for my first actual project after reading a bit of the rust book I decided to make a CLI mp3 player. I basically just combined what I learned from the guessing game project in the rust book with rodio's default audio player. It's very simple, all it does is prompt the user to pick one of three tracks, and then plays that track. Making it was fairly straightfoward and pretty fun, and I even changed some of the colors around and added some ascii art.

There's definitely room for improvement and expansion, I want to give it a gui and turn it into a webapp on my site because I know that's something you can do with rust, although to be honest the whole process would be easier in javascript I think. For the sake of learning I'll try making it in rust. I'm doing all of this for fun and learning anyways so it doesn't really matter :p.
