Very nice!

You can get some style hints from Clippy (cargo +nightly install clippy --force + cargo +nightly clippy)

Instead of i += 1 in a loop, you could use iter().enumerate(). You can also create the whole hashmap in one go with:

let qualities: HashMap<_,_> = streams.iter().map(…).collect();

And the next step for the program could be to switch from handling errors by panicing to returning them. -> Result<(), Box<Error>> (use std::error::Error) is a convenient return type, because it allows you to use ? operator on almost any result-returning function.
